See http://www.chameleonforums.com/blog...nt-diary-repashy-experiment-october-2011.html for background info.
This is the prey intake log for a single male panther chameleon for which I am periodically using the Repashy Calicum plus supplement product.
So far, no noticable impact to using the Repashy supplement. Have found crickets dont much eat the Repashy Bug Burger, thus I am now only giving it to the roaches (which love it).

Supplement use is indicated by:
C = calcium (a mix of about 50% RepCal and 50% Sticky tongues MineralO)
R = Repashy Calcium Plus (calicum and vitamins, including D3 and preformed A)
V =Vitamins (RepCal Herptivite)
Gutloading of crickets and terrestrial isopods this month were primarily carrot, butternut squash, apple, pear, dandelion greens, arugula, mustard greens, alfalfa, seeds and nuts, kelp powder, spirulina and small amounts of other assorted things.
Roaches received the same as the above, plus Repashy Bug Burger as indicated by [BB]
Stick bugs are primarily eating blackberry bramble this time of year.
Superworms and mealworms are kept / fed as indicated in this previous blog entry.
Butterworms were given steamed squash, which they ate only a little of before being fed off.
I believe the store bought silkworms were raised on chow (I no longer breed them for myself). I also gave them a few green dandelion leaves to eat just prior to being fed off.
