Heya! I've got a five-year-old leopard gecko who will be getting a shadedweller 7% UVB light, and I'm trying to figure out calcium/multivitamins for him. I'm also gonna use Repashy bug burger and Repashy super load for the feeders, if that changes anything. Would Repashy supercal LoD and Repashy calcium plus NoD be correct choices? The guide I read said that supercal NoD is for "reptiles that are kept outdoors or otherwise receive high levels of UVB.", so I thought the LoD might be good.

i have no experinece with either of those supplements but i use repashy cal plus (the normal one) as my mv+d3! and then zoomed's pure calcium :o!

#

cal plus is a multivitamin not a just a pure calcium so you would need a pure calcium there.

#

i think supercal is also a mv? so both of the ones you listed aren't just calciums

#

oh no i'm thinking of supervite??? i think it's called.

#

Oooooh I see the problem, yeah I misread

#

Calcium/MV and MV

#

oh im just so silly

plucky lance
#

ah yeh i don't use that list

#

i use the server shopping list

flint plank
#

oh sweet, i assume thats a bot command?

plucky lance
#

!shoppinglist

#

if you wanted to use specifically repashy products you could probably do their supercal NoD if that is indeed their calcium supplement and then repashy cal-plus for the mv and d3

#

Ye I'll have to read some more, having the shadedweller makes things a little complicated hahah

#

"with D3"

plucky lance
#

I feed once a week currently so i just use the combo mv (cal-plus) once a month and the rest of the feedings are my plain calcium from zoomed

#

Gotcha, makes sense

#

:3

#

Thats rlly helpful, ty!

#

Alright, I'm thinking of doing repashy calcium plus with zoomeds pure calcium and their calcium + d3, makes sense to me

#

my only concern is that the d3 content in the repashy might be too much, since hes gonna have that shadedweller

#

tfw you put more thought into your geckos nutrition than your own lol

#

Ah gotcha, I'd just replace the calcium +d3 day with a normal calcium dusting then?

#

Sorry for all the questions hahah

plucky lance
#

essentially yeh

#

do you want a screenshot of how my schedule's done for an example :o!

#

I'm moving to twice a week so i need to fix it- This is for once a week BUT. it's based off that

#

essentially it's just every 4th meal my multi/combo and the rest calcium

flint plank
#

Yea that makes total sense

#

is there any way to tell if hes getting too much of something?

#

perhaps sign language SLOMMED

plucky lance
#

i'm liking repashy calplus so far . doesn't smell heavily of vitamins and doesn't clump.

UMMM. typically goobies can be a sign of over supplementing

#

they can be a sign for other things too (armpit bubbles = goobies btw) but that's a common cause of them

#

you don't wanna like. snowglobe your feeders but you still want them coated

flint plank
#

Gotcha, tysm for all your help through this process

#

it's SO hard to weed out the bad info from the correct when just browsing online lul

plucky lance
#

flint plank
#

reptifiles isn't bad but lmfao they sometimes glorify specific products when there are more than just those that are perfectly good

flint plank

plucky lance

Repashy sponsor me /j

perfectly balanced, as all things should be

overpaying a bit for faster shipping cause my mealworms arrive soon 👀
