You should be worried about vitA and other nutrients as well. not just calcium.

Thank you for your reply. I know that you need other vitamins and minerals as well. I am only talking about calcium at this time though. Why should I be worried about vitamin A? I was told to use Herptivite (which has no vitamin A) so my frogs would have no chance of vitamin A toxicity because Herptivite uses beta carotene which is converted into vitamin A in a regulated way. Have I been misinformed?
