Bill, Paul, and Lisa. Thank you for answering my questions regarding the formula. I have since made a trip to the store this afternoon to pick up a bottle of the VGF and feel much more comfortable about what I can expect to get from the product and that I am using it in the proper way for my beloved dragons.
Tommorrow I will see if the bosses approve of their new supplements..lol. Smeagol is 8 months, 17 1/2 inches, and 340 grams while Gollum is 6-8 months, 10 inches (tail nip, prob. 15-17in with full tail), and 210 grams. Recently Gollum lost his appetite, so they both went to the vet and just finished treatment for coccidia and hookworms. I have been giving the Accidiphliz (sp?) to help stimulate appetite. He has been eating his greens but not gotten back to crickets as of yet. Luckily he has not lost any weight and has actually gained some through this tough time. What I am hoping is that with the VGF he will still get the protien, vitamins, and calcium through his veggies so I don't need to be so concerned getting it from the dusted crickets that he is not eating. Good news is that he is shown improvement and been much more lively and active the last few days so I am hoping he will be making a strong comeback with the added help from the VGF.
As far as the great UV debate goes, I just replaced my old UVB bulbs with brand new Reptisun 5.0's and will continue to as an extra insurance policy even though I do feel Bill makes some good arguments towards D3 through supplementation only.
