cricket dusting

[Hoj]

so i was just in another thread and a member suggested that someone do a thread with pics about dusting.

so here goes, this is just how i do things so feel free to do your own way and or make suggestions to me.

the flash seems to reflect off the powder making it look a little more than it is ( sorry )

here u see the dusting container and suppliment ( mineral today )

here they are with a very small amount or dust to little for most applications

this is a shot before shaking showing the ammount i typically use

after shaking (damm flash)

and one i took and over did with reason, notice how thick and clumpy in some spots tooo much

i would love to hear feedback agree/disagree from member experienced and novice.
and again this just how i do it,,,, everyone has a right to their own opinion.

Great thread. I use plastic bags that I get my crickets in at pet stores to dust, pretty much works the same.

I remember the first time I attempted at dusting, I put my crickets in the bag first and then accidently put way too much supplements in...I had some dead crickets...oops

Sticky toungues seems to stick to them alot more then rep cal making it easier to over do it.
