Thanks for any help. It's getting way to expensive at the pet store with a growing leo collection.

Just a thought but my husband works in a feed store and I have been looking at the 50 lb bags they mix in with the chicken feed. We could not find anything on the label as to weather or not it is phosperous free so I intended to contact the company to find out. You may check your local feed and seed place. I think it would then have to be strained to be sure it is fine enough. it seems like it is just as fine as the little bottles I have, but I would just want to be safe. Of course it does not have D3 either.

I buy Miner-all from lllreptile.com, but I think it's cheaper at exoticlizards.com if you need to buy a lot. The canisters are pretty big and will last you a long time.
