Posted by: RoyerReptiles at Mon Jul 7 20:23:08 2003 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by RoyerReptiles ] This is one of the most frustrating things I've encountered in my studies so far. Take the calcium/phosphorus requirements for example. It's widely accepted that a ratio of 1:1 or 2:1 is healthy. Why? Because that's the ratio present in our bodies (true for most animals) But, that's a ratio. How MUCH? do they need? Nobody says. I would suspect that an animal that is growing and laying down so much new bone growth would need more, right? Very frustrating, and just one example of a hundred. I guess that's the exciting part of being on the budding end of reptile husbandry. | ||
