Dusting FF's for neonates?

[Sir Rutherford]

is it important to supply supplements to new born neonates? If so, what is the methodology for dusting FF's. What supplements and how often? If not, do I start dusting as soon as they are big enough to eat pins and silks? Thank you for your input!

From day one, I dust about half the fruit flies offered. They arent all that nutritious, so dusting helps. Just put a little, only a little, supplement into a container. Tap in some flies. Swirl, shake, tap the container until flies are coated. put flies into cham cage. its that simple.

its Good to offer gutloaded pinheads, baby silkworms, bean beetles, baby mealworms, terrestiral isopods, etc in addition (no need to wait, 1-2 week old chams easily eat lots of different options)

Great! The oldest are only two days old now, so I have a few days to go. Thank you for your insight
