Supplimenting Montium

I was once again perusing the article in Chameleon news 2005 on montium and i noticed the authors said they are sensative to oversupplimentation but then said "The authors dust with Herptivite twice a week and Calcium three times a week with good success. Growing montium or gravid females can receive dusting 3 times a week for both supplements."

I currently dust both my montiums and xantholphus Jax as folloews:

Repcal no D3 twice weekly
Repcal +d3 instead of every 4th repcal without D3
heprtavite monthly

i find i dust more agreesively each time i do it but the my one montium is a slow grazing feeders

Has this changed or am i undersupplimenting. i realize the article was most worried about too much Vit A

Thanks,

Sean
 
Although I haven't had any montiums in about 7 years, I was using Herptivite and Rep-Cal at the time. I think I was only supplementing with the Herptivite maybe once or twice a week and they still seemed to develop edema. When I discontinued that product (still keeping the calcium supplement) they looked more normal. For what it's worth...
 
I use all the different cal that I can find. I rotate them in and use it once or twice a week. I only use vit, maybe once every 4-6 weeks.
I really think it would be pretty hard to undersupplement if you are supplementing at all.
