I may be aquiring some Eurycea from a keeper who is shifting their attention to other amphibians in the next week. I am planning to feed them primarily the night crawlers and red wrigglers that I feed my newts, but cut into smaller sections, but I also have the option of wingless melanogaster fruit flies, as I breed them for dart frogs. For dart frogs, fruit flies are always dusted with Calcium every feeding aside from one to two feedings a month where Vitamin A dusting is used. Is this supplement regime recommended for salamanders consuming fruit flies as a substantial (~ 20 %) of their diet as well? I have checked the Caudata Culture Eurycea sp. care sheet as well as the articles about food items and their nutritional formulation, and haven't seen any mention of supplement dusting.
