Dusting advice required

[ViolentJ]

We're collecting a 2 month old Yemen on Monday and I'd like some advice on dusting.

I currently have to hand:

100% natural Calcium Carbonate
Euro Rep Repton Dusting Supplement
Nutrobal (calcium balancer & multivitamin)

The first 2 I've used with my frog for well over a year now. The Nutrobal I've inherited.

Bear in mind that I'm in the UK if you suggest any alternative products.

I am not familiar with your brands but you will need plain calcium with no vitamin d and you will need calcium with vitamin d and you will need a multivitamin such as Rep-Cal Herptivite. As that age you will dust with plain calcium at just about every feeding. Use calcium with D3 twice a month and the Mulitvitamins once a month. On the days that you use the multi or the D3 do not use the plain calcium because these already have calcium in them. Jann

Well the Calcium carbonate is just pure calcium as far as I'm aware so I'd use that one daily then.

Both Repton and Nutrobal are multivitamins and contain D3 so should I use one of those once or twice a month?

I use the Calcium Carbonate (Calypso dust) every day. Then twice a month I use the nutrobal as it has d3 and vitamins in it. On the days I use those, i don't use the calypso dust.

That answers my question then. Thanks Emma.

Twice a month as WelshOneEmma said. Jann
