Hey Tim--

You mean once a week for Hertevite, right? I use the Repcal daily (my hermanni is a juvenile).

Jennifer


: Buy a good quality reptile supplement. I use Repcal with D3 and Herptevite for my Redfoots. Once a week is plenty if you feed a good variety of foods. Some vitamins in large amounts can be toxic to reptiles. I've seen vitamin A cause a tortoise to sluff its skin. So go light with the vitamins. You don't have to worry much about giving to much calcium. Good luck,

: Tim
