I absolutely love my panther.♥

Supplements are easy, what I do is I use Rapashy's Calcium plus at every feeding very lightly.
And once a month I light dust with calcium+D3 instead.

Is that supp. Chart for life like they dont need multi.vit.?

It is worth it yes.

Their care is simpler, and it is a different experience from keeping jacksons.

I think you will enjoy it.


Their supps depend on how you keep them. A basic indoor schedule is:
Repashy calcium plus on all feeders.
or
Calcium w/ D3 one feeder, every other week, and herptivite/multivitamin on one feeder on every other week. You can just pick a day (say sat) and alternate these every week.
You will dust all other feeders with plain calcium.

You dont need the extra D3, RC+ is formulated as an all in one.

Here is what I do for Panthers

Supplements-
I use 4 types of supplements: Rep-cal calcium phosphate free without D3, Repashy Calcium Plus (all-in-one), Rep-cal Herpivite multi-vitamins, Miner-All I (indoor formula). Below is the schedule I follow.

Nearly every feeding- Repashy Calcium Plus (all-in-one), with light dusting! Do not overcoat the feeders. A light dusting is all that is required. I skip 1 or 2 days a week with no dusting and give straight well gutloaded insects.
Once a week - Rep-cal calcium phosphate free without D3 again lightly dusted.
Once a month- Rep-cal Herpivite multi-vitamins lightly dusted
Once a month- Miner-All I (indoor formula) lightly dusted.
I alternate the supplements for the last 2 on Friday of each week as follows.
Friday week 1- Rep-cal Herpivite multi-vitamins lightly dusted
Friday week 2 - No Supplement
Friday week 3- Miner-All I (indoor formula) lightly dusted.
Friday week 4 - No Supplement

I cut repcal with D3 out entirely since Repashy and Miner-all I both have D3.
