.....has made me curious. My little iggy is 4" from nose to vent (about 16" from nose to end of tail). I have no clue how old he is, but I give him a dusting of Rep-Cal phosphorous-free calcium with vitamin D3 ultrafine powder with each feeding. Was unable to find a vitamin supplement specifically for igs, so I got one made for birds. (The book I have recommended this) It is called Avitron. I use 1 drop a day/every other day, depends. Here is the content:

Vit A-44IU
Vit D3-6.6IU
Vit E-0.071IU
Vit C-2200mcg
Vit B1-22mcg
Vit B2-44mcg
Vit B6-50mcg
Vit B12-0.11mcg
Vit K-11mcg
o-Pantothenic Acid-120mcg
Niacinamide-440mcg
Choline-110mcg

These amounts are minimum per drop. Any help would be appreciated. He seems like a happy healthy little guy/girl, and sheds like crazy! I just want to make sure I am giving him the right amounts of the good stuff. Just in case you're wondering (or if it will help) I feed him greens (either mustard, collard, dandelion, or escarole) squash (spaghetti), sweet potato, parsnip, green beans, and occasionally fruit such as strawberries, mango, raspberries, or apples. Any info would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
