What do you think?

Found this today lying around brand new from a old parrot,can it be used with panthers? Any reasons why and why not? back of the bottle is in 2 pics bit awkward but could not fit it all in

It has vitamin d3 in it, so I wouldn't use it on a regular basis. I don't think it will benefit chameleons either as a multivitamin, I'm not seeing any vitamin a in it.

 

[GrayMadder]

What is the expiration date on it ?

 

[Rhea’s mum]

The vitamin d in this is known to be extremely high.

 

[Meganemilliemai]

Hi expiry date is end of next year and so do you think it’s to high for a Cham then?

 

[GrayMadder]

I would look up the amount of vitamin d3 and compare it to the amount you already give your cham.

If it has phosphorus in it then no.... Our feeders are already high in phosphorus. We have to use phos free calcium to balance that out.

 

[DocZ]

From what I can read 20.8% Calcium to 0.45% Phosphorus which is a good ca-p ratio
Your supplement has:
Vitamin A: 272,727 IU/lb
D3 (I think): 81,818
E: 10,681

Repashy Calcium Plus
A: 200,000
D3: 20,000
E: 2000

It looks to me like a lot of fat soluble vitamins as well

Repashy calcium plus is on the high end of A and D3 that most would recommend

what is better/best than arcadia? Nutrobal? This one is actually rarely used for chameleons.

 

[Flick boy]

Well just stating what the experienced exotic vet has said and recommended.

Right and I am trying to clarify what they said was better then arcadia. The nutrobal that this thread is asking about?

 

[Flick boy]

Yes

 

[Beman]

Yes

Interesting... Maybe it is more common in the UK... You never see it recommended in the United States.

I know it’s really popular in Germany

 

[Flick boy]

Its produced in the uk so possibly.

 

[Rhea’s mum]

It’s so so common over here in the uk. Any pet shop that has a reptile section (I use that term loosely) has it. It’s hard to find any other products unless you shop online.

I know there was a thread a while ago about the supplements and levels of vitamins and d3 and I compared our pot of nutrobal to it and it was extremely high. We were given it with our beardie when we rehomed her but I don’t even like feeding it to her because of the levels.

I know the uk groups recommend against it too for chams.

Thank you that is what I thought...I am part of a FB forum as well that has international members and they do not recommend that one there either because of the levels.
