Do females need more supplements?

[KatiLemons]

I am getting a female panther tomorrow and I was wondering if they need more calcium than a male all the time or just wehn gravid? I was thinking of getting her a Rephasy product and am not sure which one to get!

I give my breeding females slightly more calcium than everyone else, and only when developing and for a week or so after laying.

Is there anything paticular you use or do you just up the dose of powder your dusting with?

When they are gravid is when you should make sure your female is on a good schedule with calcium everyday and d3 every other week and switching it with multivitamins. And make sure your crickets have a gut load diet to

just my normal Rep-Cal or Miner-al-O calcium powder
and I just dust more heavily or more items than usual.
