So I found repashy calcium plus for leopard geckos crested geckos and bearded dragons... They all gave different levels of supplements.. which is it? It'd be great If it was leopard gecko cause I already use that for my leos! :). Thank u!
 
It has a geko on the front of it. It also states clearly Calcium Plus;) They are a sponsor here at CF. There is only 1 Calcium plus... The others are diets

See that's wat I'm afraid of.. the long term effects if its wrong... If u would be so kind to type the amounts of wat it has thats on the back so I can see if its a match. If not no hard feelings I will just buy wats In ur hand and continue to use wats In my hand for just leos.. if I can use one sup. For both species I will be Soo happy!
 
Holy cow..... It would take me forever to type all that stuff....Can you send an E mail to them and ask if its the same?

No hey that was perfect. This stuff differs to much for me. Like twice the amount of D3 and A. Soo ill leave that to the leos and get the right stuff :) thanks for the pics!
 
calcium plus aka crested gecko diet.

repashy calcium plus, aka crested gecko diet, like most supps is not species specific and its overall dose needs to be calculated according to diet and other factors.

repashy calcium plus is a low dose full house multivite with d3 and preformed vitamina A at a the proper 1:10 d3/a ratio. if giving calcium plus the directions are intended for crested geckos and not suitable for chams especially montagnes, but, because of its low dosing, i believe it to be the safest (and only suitable) preformed vitaminA product on the market when used appropriately.

imo a small matchead about every week- 10 days is all thats required. since it is a full house multivite with preformed a, imo, no other vites (other than cham healthy foods) should be offered either as dusting or gutload. a another weekly matchead of plain cal would also be appropriate.

im not a big fan of preformed a, but i believe it is the lowest dose preformed a product available in a d3/a 1;10 ratio. if a person is compelled to use a preformed a product, i believe it is the only one to use.

imo, i believe they mistakenly posted the kg values instead of the lb values. jmo

calcium plus is 1/10th the strength of reptivite.

reptivite
Vitamin A
99,910 IU​

Vitamin D3
10,390 IU​

Vitamin E
1000 IU​

Vitamin K (Menadione)

Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C)
1406.2 mg​

Thiamine (Vitamin B1)
83.92 mg​

Riboflavin (Vitamin B2)
124.7 mg​

Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5)

Niacin

Pyridoxine (Vitamin B6)
30.4 mg​

Folic Acid
48.5 mg​

Biotin
12.2 mg​


Vitamin B12
3.04 mg​

the figures you mention are posted in a few locations including the repashy distributor website, but they conflict with most of the posted analysis for the product so i believe they are a misprint. i have bought many sized calcium plus products over the years and i have never seen any other values on the package other than the ones posted first.



nice to actually see someone bothering to check the dosage of their vites.

Yea I read the levels I gotta be sure to get a good balance. See the one I pictures above speaking in terms if D and preformed A
D3 is 400,000 ui/lb and A being 40,000 ui/lb which was twice wat the other poster showed. The numbers maybe switched around I don't have the jar infront of me I'm at work. But defiantly 400,000 and 40,000. Which seemed to much. But was ment FOR leopard geckos. Didn't just have a pic of one it said FOR. I'M gonna go with was proven safe. To be safe in order to figure my exact balance. As of now I'm doin with rep-cal without everydAY lightly WITH D3 bi monthly then once a month then bi monthly and so on. And herptivite with performed A like u said a match head worth once a month..
