    Big Improvements - Repashy?

    Sputin cleaned his plate of plain greens yesterday. First time EVAR. *dances*

    Big Improvements - Repashy?

    It seems to. Suptin gets insects 2 or 3 times a week, and I always use it (it says to on the directions, unlike RepCal).

    Big Improvements - Repashy?

    Its a brand of supplements, calcium and multivitamin and other stuff . . . http://www.store.repashy.com/repashy-superfoods/retail/by-product-name-en/calcium-plus-en/ - the calcium / multivitamin for dusting insects...

    Big Improvements - Repashy?

    I sprinkle the SuperVeggie on every salad, and use the CalciumPlus (which is calcium and vitamins together) on all insects - those are the directions it says.

    Big Improvements - Repashy?

    No one else uses this stuff? I was hoping for some conformation of refutation of my results!

    How many is to many???

    Although I now frequent two awesome reptile shops in my area (Underground Reptiles and Ben Siegel Reptiles), my little Sputin was my first reptile, and I got him as a Valentine's Day gift for my wife from . . . Pet Supermarket ojo! He turned out to be a one in a million (since he is of course...

    Big Improvements - Repashy?

    Before I tell my story, I must state I am just giving my observations, and am in no way devoted to any particular products. I have a 550+ gram almost 2 year old beardie named Sputin. For the longest time he was a fineky eater, and at times seemed lethargic or moody. Not always, but he would go...

    Providing Variety

    Sputin gets crickets, superworms, mealworms (only once a month, in small amounts), roaches, slikworms, hornworms, waxworms, pinkies (again, only once a month, the smallest they have at the store) - I agree variety is key. For veggies he gets spring mix, collard greens, mustard greens, squash...

    Sputin Dislikes Salad

    UPDATE!! After greatly restricting insects for a while, Sputin now eats veggies . . . sort of. Mostly he munches mango, plum, strawberries, and apple. Only once in a while, but more than before, he eats greens. I have read that too much fruit gives some reptiles parasite blooms. Is it ok that...

    Sputin Dislikes Salad

    I am gonna be strong and put him on a salad only two week experience, and watch his weight to make sure he doesn't lose too much. The shed theory might be right though, I saw quite a few eye bulges today!

    Tile/Sand Substrate

    I use slate tile for peace of mind lol. I will say a nice benefit of the slate tile is that my beardie's nails are always nice and worn down :) I would love to use sand so he could dig but I get paranoid about health issues and the tiles are super easy to clean.

    Sputin Dislikes Salad

    It varies. For a while he was getting a few crickets or a few superworms or a few silkworms every other day. Then I gave them once a week for a while to force him to eat more salad . . . didn't really do much to motivate him. Now it is about every 3 days, getting anywhere from a dozen large...

    DIY tile in 55g

    I use slate tile, and had it cut at the hardware store for me (Lowes). It has worked unbelievably well. NO risk of impaction, and because it is slate it keeps his nails really short and trim all on its own. He always poops during a soak, so the combination makes his habitat super safe and super...

    Sputin Dislikes Salad

    Sometimes we sppon-feed him some baby food with Critical Care in it, to keep him hydrated and full of nutrients during an especially rebellious fast by Sputin. I gut load all crickets with collard greens in hopes he gets a little that way as well. Lately he has shed in a strange way - one week...
