Looking for new supplements!

Awesome! Might have to get those then and try them out with Basil. Also, what schedule do you follow with them? Just curious ()

The cal w/3D and Multi would be used 2 times a month . The cal w/out d3 is to be used every feeding lightly dusted for Basil . If Basil is going out side for at least an hour a day he would not need D3 at all .

@hiddenflaws I do it the same way @Kristen Wilkins described in post #21 above.

I learned from the best !. We do use repashy loD however we do this schedule for the dragon . Along with another brand bit this schedule .

The three products that @Kristen Wilkins posted photos of are what I've used for years and I've never had any issues with them. I've never had to add any prEformed vitamin A for panthers or veileds either.

So glad/relieved to hear that. I just switched from all Repashy to Rep Cal and bought those three.

I’ve used Repashy LoD for a month on my young cham. No noted issues so far and sheds seem fine. I know the Kammers recommend the Calcium Plus like I believe the OP is currently using and they report no observable issues over multiple generations of chams. This is always an interesting topic to me. I think it’s possible, like humans, that genetics play a role in how different supplements are absorbed (or lack thereof). I agree that if you are experiencing issues that you can’t otherwise account for, a change in supplementation is warranted. Just monitor your cham closely as you make changes.

This might sound bad, but I really hope it is the repashy plus calcium that I am currently using to be the problem only because I don't have much options left to why the area around his eyes are so red and the next thing to test out is taking the foam wall (it came with the exo terra terrarium I have) down and that also includes the walls I made for him on the side with great foam and silicon which will be so much of a pain for me and my work would have been for nothing. ))): Really hoping to avoid this situation because I won't be able to redo the walls for another year or so.

I wonder if you could coat the foam with something as an alternative to taking everything apart. There’s a lot of DIY members in the forum that might be able to assist you, but it might warrant a new thread to grab some attention to that specific issue.

oooo that's an interesting idea. I'll definitely have to make a separate thread discussing that issue if switching supplements doesn't fix the problem.
