I have used it and i think it is amazing. I actually use the ig dust, beardie dust, tortoise dust, and i have in the past used the crestie MRF and the treefrog dust too.
Trex has created amazing products here in my opinion. They have taken the general reptile multivittamin and reformulated it to fit individual species needs. These are supposed to be used for every feeding, too, because of the balance of the ingredients. There should be no overdosing with this product, but to be on the safe side, i skip a day or two a week from time to time. I also still supplement with calcium, too, on the days i dont use the super food.
So, as for the leo dust, i love it. I bought a dull-ish looking baby leo from a petstore a while back. It was a bit on the small side and a little dehydrated, but it looked like it had potential to be a beauty. After a week of using the dust, the oranges became brilliant. This has happened a few times to me when i was rehabilitating other leos from petco.
So, in my opinion, it is a great product. Buutt..thats just an opinion from lil ole me.

I don't use the ICB for my leos, but I do for my beardies. I have been using it for almost a year ow with very good results on color , health and growth rates. Just to let you know, all the ICB's are the same formulation, only different labels for marketing. For my leos, I usr the superfoods gutload. I keep about an 1/8" in the bottom of my feeding dishes and just add mealworms...the worms eat the guload the leos eat the worms and the dust. This is the only supplementing my leos get both growing babies and breeders.

Bill knows what he's talking about!
all the icb dusts are exactly the same, no need to buy a bunch of different ones for different species. I use just the icb dust for my leos and they're doing great
I highly recommend the stuff

Is there a web site to buy it from at a reasonable price? Thanks.

I think that's probably the point...to make you think you need different ones for the different species so you'll buy more...that or just to make people feel better about what they're feeding their animals.

Just a little more info...a bug is a bug is a bug (well pretty much)...lol. The ICB is formulated to balance out the nutrition of an insect and make it as much of a complete food as you can feed to your reptile at every meal. It is much more than just a vitamin and mineral powder. It contains protien, carbs , fats, plant extracts(color enhancement), and probiotics(for a healthy gut) in addition to the micro nutrients. hope this helps.
