Dusting...now I'm confused and I thought I had it right...can we each post what we do? m

Here I thought I was following directions very closely, and then I see Eric's post that says, "when I said Rep-cal, I meant Rep-cal, the calcium with D3 powder, not Rep-cal(brand) herptivite--which is something you want to use SPARINGLY, once every 2-3 weeks". Well, now I'm so confused...

Eric, not picking on you...I just want to make sure I'm doing right (which it looks like I'm not!) This statement sent up alarms because I've been dusting with Rep-Cal herptivite (the vitamins) once per week. I've also been dusting with Rep-Cal Calcium w/D3 twice per week. I dust with just calcium w/D3 on Thursday and both vit's and calcium w/D3 on Sunday.

What does everyone else do? Brands?? Oh, by the way, this is for my pygmy cham's...I don't have any larger species at the moment.

Maybe one day I'll get it right...sheesh!
