Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Laura, np. I used to feed my leos crickets and pinky mice. I used Rep Cal with D3 and Herptivite. I had great success and if I got an infertile egg it was a big deal. It almost never happened. Once I switched over to mealworms/supers I had more problems. When I switched my supplementation methods this season the problems went away.

lol,..... Kelli why don't you just post your supplementation methods in a sticky thread, save you a lot of typing
btw i have a question about Vionate. You give it to them in a dish... Do they really eat it voluntarily? Because I've tried several herp vitamin dusts and the one thing they all have in common is that the herps hate the taste and smell. It's that bitterness that comes from the B vitamins, brewers yeast based. If leos actually like the taste of Vionate, then I'm ordering me some today.

I have seen them lick the Vionate dishes before. One thing you could do (I do this occasionally as well) is put the feeder worms in the Vionate dish of your adults, or dust the bugs with Vionate occasionally. It certainly doesn't keep them from eating the worms, little piggies!

I have seen many of my babies licking the vionate straight from the bowl since switching from rep cal d3.

Thanks Kelli I found it. It is confusing sometimes with so many differences of opinion. I just want what is best for my animals and their offspring. I found a nutritional break down for crickets and mealworms but haven't been able to locate one for roaches yet does anyone know of any web sites with this information.
