My 2 Juvies, all of a sudden will not eat crickets that i coat with calcium or multi Vitamin, they had no problem with it for the last 2 months. as an experiment I mixed the powder with some water and sprayed down the crickets and there greens, and they ate it fine. Will mixing the vit's and calcium with water take away from its effectiveness? or will they still get the stuff they need?

It probably makes them feel dehydrated or thirsty, and that stuff is dry. So maybe just keep mixing the powder with water or give them plenty of water before and after feeding. (I like to use a dropper and it rolls down their nose and they lick it up)
