Question about flies and dusting feeders

[Chellia]

I'm purchasing a 2 month old veiled from either lllreptile or flchams in a few weeks and I have a feeder question.

I'm planning on having a large supply of silks, Phoenixs (at least at first), roaches and houseflies/blue bottle for the staple diet and butterworms, hornworms, crickets, and superworms for variety.

Would flies be too big for a two month old? Or is there a particular type of fly that is good for younger chams?

Also, which feeders from my list should I dust?

Blue bottle flys might be a little big. I would try the house flys first. Dust roaches, crickets and supers and you should be good. I don't use butters so can't tell you to dust them or not.

Would superworms be too big for him at first, or are the small sizes okay?

Also, THANK YOU!

You don't really have to dust the butterworms. They have plenty of calcium as it is.

I think the smalls should be fine.
