vitamins

I'm going to buy some kind of vitamin/mineral supplement for my reptiles but don't know which one to get. Are some better than others? I'd prefer to get one that will work for all my herps (geckos, beardies, and box turtles). The supplier that I order from has RepCal Herpitive, ZooMed Reptivite, and Sticky Tongue Vit All. Any preferences? I'd be useing it with zoomed or repcal calcium with D3. Sticky tongue is looking to be the cheapest but I havn't heard of it befor. I'm kind of clueless here and lookin for advice. Thanks

I have been using Herptivite for the last week since i bought some from thebeanfarm.com and my dragon seems to be enjoying it very much. They have it for like 8 bucks for 3.2 oz jar. I don't know i found its cheaper than a pet store for more but i was buying flexwatt and other stuff so it was easy to add on for me. Anyways thats the stuff i use and it seems to be the big rav around the beardie people from what i hear.

I'm a Rep-Cal believer and use their vitamins and calcium. Their vitamin A comes from Beta Carotene which eliminates the risk of excess Vitamin A problems. I'm not sure how the other vitamins handle Vitamin A.
