IS This A Good Multivitamin For A Veiled Chamelon?

[KamaKamaChameleon!]

So I Found This On Amazon While Looking For Multivitamin Without D3 Is IT Good?

 

[Syreptyon]

Yes, this is used by lots of members

I would pair that alongside a multivitamin with preformed vitamin A

I recommend the Reptivite. It has some Vitiman A and you can get it with or without D3.

Or Should I Get This?

In my opinion, stick to the Herptivite, and don't get the Reptivite, it contains prEformed Vit A, and it is much easier to separately supplement it.

But what about the debate of Herptivite containing Beta carotene and chameleons not being able to convert it into Vit A? I belong to several other Chameleon groups on Fb and everyone says to use Reptivite. I use it also.

There seems to be some good info out there suggesting chameleons benefit from preformed vitamin A. I would just alternate something like herptivite with reptivite or even vit A liquid(so for example, reptivite 1x/month herptivite 1x/month). I don't know anyone that's had problems doing this.

You just have to be careful, because it is already in there. With liquid, you can "dose" it.

Has anyone that wasnt completely off with supplementation(example ghosting crickets daily with reptivite) ever had a problem with hypervitaminosis?

That is what I am curious about, or not enough dusting.

Yup, I dose with Carlson, but you gotta be careful.

In another post I was told reptivite once a month for my jackson chameleon. Would doing it this way be better or no?

 

[jamest0o0]

Reptivite alternated with herptivite alternated with d3 should work fine. So for example, Saturday 1 D3, Saturday 2 reptivite, saturday 3 d3, Saturday 4 herptivite, and so on...

 

[Boston Pitty]

Reptivite has D3 I think, that wouldn't be over doing it? When I got argo I was givin a sample of Repticalcium without D3. Is that any good?

 

[jamest0o0]

Use reptivite that is d3 free

 

[Boston Pitty]

I've only seen the one with D3. I'll have to double check to see if its online. The only ones that the shop I work at only have the reptivite with D3, the repticalcium without, and some calcium spray
