How often are you dusting food, if you're dusting it? I have a calcium/D3 powder and I've been trying to occasionally dust my one month old sulcata's greens but anytime I do, he refuses to eat them. I don't blame him, those calcium dusts smell terrible. But I'm not totally sure if I should even bother with it, and if I should, how often I should be using it.

Instead of calcium dust try feeding egg shells. You can grind them up and sprinkle it on the food just like calcium powder.
