Dosage: We ask that you mix Rep-Cal with our vitamin supplement Herptivite. If we premixed the products, the "beadlets" of beta carotene in Herptivite may possibly be damaged during manufacturing by the calcium in Rep-Cal. Mix with vegetables, fruits, and pastes approximately 1/2 tablespoon Rep-Cal with 1/2 tablespoon Herptivite per pound of food.
Before feeding insects:
- Thoroughly mix a 1:1 ratio of Rep-Cal and Herptivite in a plastic bag.
- Place insects in the bag.
- Shake slowly until they are completely covered.
No other supplementation is required. Contains no added starch, sugar, soy preservatives, artificial coloring, flavoring, or fragrance. Consult your veterinarian for any special nutritional problems or advice.

This is just okay. I find the consistency a bit gritty in some of the mix, like the texture of grains of sand while other parts are fine particles. I think this multivitamin supplement is good in a pinch, but there really are much better multivitamins out there. One thing I don’t like about this multivitamin is that it doesn’t contain Vitamin A which is necessary for various species that I keep, so I’ve opted for other supplements like Arcadia or Repashy’s multivitamins which both have a more consistent consistency and Vitamin A plus other added minerals that are needed.

Everyone knows Beardies need extra calcium, even on their veggies. This is a fantastic multivitamin -- shake a little on their lettuce, carrots, etc -- and let the dragons munch away. It's a great comfort knowing your pets are still getting the nutrients they need to stay healthy even when eating a salad. It must have a decent flavor too, my baby beardie even eats greens now! Helpful hint: If you are having issues getting your lizards to eat veggies, try sprinkling a tiny bit of bee pollen on them. It makes everything irresistable!

Not appropriate for leopard geckos
My baby leopard gecko is my first reptile. This product was recommended to me by the reptile store we got my gecko from. However, my gecko later started acting lethargic
My baby leopard gecko is my first reptile. This product was recommended to me by the reptile store we got my gecko from. However, my gecko later started acting lethargic and squinting her eyes. We took her straight into an exotics specialist vet and it turns out she was low in vitamin A despite my using this product. This product Only has beta carotene but no other form of vitamin A. Some insectivorous lizards can't convert beta carotene to the active form of vitamin A and that's exactly what happened to my leopard gecko. After a dose of vitamin A and switching to a different product that contains other forms of vitamin A, she's healthy and active again. But this product is not appropriate as a vitamin source for all reptiles as advertised.
