best calcium powder

I have had more success with the Mazuri Better Bug Gutload. It has put healthy weight on my amphibians. It has outperformed the Repashy and I was recommended by my vet who showed me a study and by Herpetologist Frank Indiviglio

Repashy Calcium Plus is not a gutload, it's a dusting supplement - completely different thing. You're comparing apples and oranges. Personally, I use an organic chinchilla food as my cricket gutload.

You don't need the supplement if you use the Mazuri Gutload. Even though it's not a supplement it provides everything the amphibians need. It does work best for the native species but I've seen improvement in a skink and White's Tree Frog as well. I know other then the Mazuri chicken food is good to feed the insects.

I have no doubt that your gutload meets your needs - my gutload meets mine. However, my own experience has been that calcium dusting is necessary for many species of amphibian to avoid metabolic bone disease.

I'm not disputing you I used to use Repashy as a supplement but it wasn't providing what my toads and gray tree frogs specifically needed. There's nothing wrong with using both. I'm not trying to advertise for this brand I had no idea they existed until this past January. I've seen some incredible progress happen that saved my toads lives specifically. That's why I try to encourage people to use it.
