I think it's a great product, and the Kammer's swear by it.
However, I think it has a little too much of everything for daily use.

So, I use plain calcium daily, and calcium plus a few times a week.

Repashy also has a low D formula, in response to us cham people using suppliments for jax, in particular.

So if you are supplementing for a jax, I would either use the low D once a week, or the regular formula once a month.

I love Repashy's Bug Burger! it has everything in it.
So I throw a few pieces in the crick bin along with their usual fruits and veggies.

The Kammer's gut load their feeders with bug burger only, at least that is what they told me a year or so ago.
I still think fresh veggies are needed in the gut load.

I recently had good success treating a chameleon with hypovitaminosis with it. I used it every day on her feeders until she looked better then I switched to twice a week.

I use it for all my guys and its great!

 

[jurjenfromholland]

haha ok!! then i guess its worth trying to bad i have a bag fully sealed that
has extended at may... 2014.. bah

if it wasn't opened, i think you could get another 6 months out of it.

I echo the notion of using once or twice weekly, rather than daily. With vitamin free calcium used as needed the rest of the time.
Repashy has another version with lower D and A which is more suitable for daily use, if that's what you are after.

I have this but never used it because most people say to stay clear. So if it has a little too much of everything then what are peoples dusting schedule for using it.

Trevor isn't a big eater so it's really hard to dust the way I am at the moment. Say he eats on a sat which is his calcium d3/multivitamin every other sat. He will eat on sat say and then go 3-4 days until his next feed. So the plain calcium in the week is nearly missed also together.

I love the Repashy.

Currently I'm dusting with straight calcium 5 days a week. One day I give just one food item with Repashy calcium/medium D3. Another day I feed just two food items with a multivitamin/mineral.

I also feed all my feeders fresh veggies.

 

[Shaunny]

That sounds just as complicated lol....so would it be ok to do every 4 feeds with calcium and the 5th calcium plus? Like I said he may only eat twice a week. But not always on a sat when I do the other dusts

 

[jurjenfromholland]

So now im getting confused
im kinda dutch and this is hard to understand..
i m using now plain calcium allways and twice a month d3...
and twice vitamin powder.. but just wondering that both my chameleons..
lack shoothing 1 from the start i got him and 1 that got that later on...
just wondering if THat product i use is good to try to see stuff will be better

Some people, like the Kammer's dust with Repashy calcium plus every day, and every feeding. They have been doing this for years, and you can see for yourself how wonderful and vibrant their chams are.

I just think the stuff is a little too much of some of the vitamins, it's almost like dusting with a multivitamin daily!!

I dont use calcium with D3, I use the Repashy instead.
Just use the plain calcium every feeding, and the Repashy once a week, depending on how much natural sun they get, and what I am gut loading my feeders with.

what brand of vitamin powder do you use?
how do you gutload and what types of feeder prey do you offer ? tongue issues are sometimes vitamins B related

 

[Psychobunny]

So, what has lots of vitamine B to use for a gut load Sandra?

Moose liver!!?? LOL

I can see myself asking the meat counter guy at my local Safeway; "say, you guys have any moose liver"??

Got most of that other stuff though, and I do use some of those things in my gutload.
