Re: Vitamin and Calcium Supplements
How many times a week are you feeding it? When I dust my snake's food I have a mixture of half calcium and half vitamin powder with a little bit of this powder that's supposed to help them move the food out a little better. I dust probably every other week for my two adults and every week for my baby.

Re: Vitamin and Calcium Supplements
I'm feeding mine every four days and use 'calcimise' (recommended amount) and 'reptasol' (at a quarter the recommended amount) at a constant trace level in their water.

Re: Vitamin and Calcium Supplements
same thing I would recommend. Just use a tiny bit though, im sure you know this but too much calcium -may- cause problems.
