    Above - Is a powdered form of Vit A
    - it should be used cautiously and/or under the supervision of a Herp Vet specific to the species of frog that may require it.

    My experience with the use of this product is limited to a bi-monthly supplementation for breeding /adult dart frogs only.

    -Pink--- is Calcium and Vit D
    -Blue--- is vitamins

    Both of the Rep-Cal products can be purchased from Josh's Frogs

    It looks like the two products you purchased mirror the 2- Rep-cal products
    I have never used them----- That does not make them 'bad'.
    Perhaps read about them on Zoo Med's site.
    If you have any questions ---I'm SURE they have a customer service # and would be happy to answer any questions

    Enjoy the links Terry added to her reply

    If frogs are eating them; those two you bought will work by themselves. What frogs do you have? Myself use solely Repashy products (mostly Calcium Plus now); but there are other brands around. Keep containers in refrigerator and also watch for the expiration date .
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
