    Regarding Calcium w/D3

    Ha ya I liked that too :) What about "ghost-dusting"? That would make someone a "ghost-duster" right? Maybe we should get some ghost-busters to talk to the ghost-dusters haha

    Regarding Calcium w/D3

    Ok, well you continue to do what you feel is ok, I have no problems with that. I would only say that there is a reason the FDA sent out that letter, and it had nothing to do with how they "feel" about the supplement, it had to do with the measurable concentrations of D3 in a product in...

    Regarding Calcium w/D3

    I don't think we disagree on anything, I think we both know a balanced diet is key, but I didn't see any math in your blog... How are you so sure your animals are getting the proper amount of D3 unless you've actually done the math? Using RepCal with D3 less often would be better yes, but I...

    Regarding Calcium w/D3

    What are you basing this labeling of the product as "perfectly safe" as? I'm curious as to how you "found" it to be one of the better supplements around? Did you do the math, or conduct some sort of study I'm not aware of? Did you even read the letter that was posted? This isn't a matter of...

    Hey All

    Hey all, New to the forum as of today, joining so I can experience keeping (vicariously just to be clear ;) ) a very nice rare chameleon with one of my Rhacodactylus breeder friends. I love chameleons and plan to own some once I have a stable place to live after I finish Grad School...
