Rep-Cal Phosphorus-Free Calcium with Vitamin D3 Ultrafine Powder, 3.3 oz.
Description
Please note that the product information displayed is provided by manufacturers, suppliers and other third parties and is not independently verified by Petco.
Rep-Cal Ultrafine (fine grind) is an excellent source of calcium for all reptiles and amphibians. Scientifically formulated from human grade 100% natural Oyster Shell phosphorus-free calcium carbonate with added Vitamin D3 to aid in the absorption of calcium. Calcium deficiency is a major dietary problem of captive reptiles and amphibians. Maintaining a proper calcium:phosphorus (Ca:P) ratio in the diet of 1.5:1 is believed to be just as important nutritionally as an adequate Ca intake. The problem in most cases is an improper Ca:P ratio, not too little Ca. Ca:P ratios of common cultured food items are shockingly poor: Crickets 0.13:1, Meal Worms 0.06:1, Wax Worms 0.08:1, Pinky Mice 0.89:1. Using a calcium supplement that also adds phosphorus makes no sense as an adequate Ca:P ratio can never be achieved. Rep-Cal contains only 100% Natural human grade phosphorus-free oyster shell Calcium Carbonate for its calcium source.
- - "Ultra-fine" powder is readily absorbed; sticks to any insect or food item

Questions
Can it be used for snails
My hermit crab is molting and I read that he needs vitamins and calcium. Is this good to give him?
- I know this is good for reptiles, but I believe there's a different blend for crabs. Might want to call customer service.

Can yu suggest any calcium tab product which is brilliant for gsd dog
I have a pet lovebird named peaches. I mixed crushed oyster shells, cuttlefishbone power and supplement calcium because she was laying eggs every two months, i gave her supplement calcium and mixed it with crushed oyster shells and cuttlefishbone powder. you think that supplement bird calcium will harm or kill her since too much calcium is no good. she stopped laying her eggs every two months, she is laying every four months. is it alright to give her a bird calcium supplement, is it safe?
Can u suggest me the dosage or direction of giving beapher bone builder powder
since peaches laid all those eggs what calcium supplement should i give her i am giving her crushed oyster shells, should i give her more calcium?
Hi can use a natural human calcium supplement,say ground coral,for my baby sulcate?
Can we give a calcium supplement bought from the pet store for kittens ( 3months, 1.8kg,male mainecoon mix). It is tablet form with dosage for kittens.
Hi Tony is on a kidney diet in his early stages of kidney disease and it’s not always easy to get him to eat it and I’ve tried every brand and flavor there is. My vet gave me some aluminum hydro powder phosphorus binder to put on his regular senior diet for those difficult times. I was hoping To get another opinion on this phosphorus binder ? Thanks
My 2 yo Lab/Ridgeback is 86 lbs yes overweight and has a urine ph of 5. I have her on grain free Taste of the Wild venison/buffalo 2.5 cups daily. Without spending $80.00 for a 17 lb bag of Royal Canin So , what dry food or treatments might you recommend for Rylee?
Our 12 lb. Domestic Shorthair may have ingested part of a Calcium & Vitamin D3 supplement. The softgel contained 600 mg of Calcium and 12.5 mcg (500 IU) of Vitamin D3. Would this be enough to be toxic to him? What should we do?
Currently I am using calcium sand. It doesn’t seem to be effecting Ash at all. Should I continue to use the sand or get something else such as eco earth?
Hi Are there any studies on effectiveness of phosphorus binder powders being mixed into non kidney foods in cats with kidney issues? Tony is 20 and in early stages renal disease and won’t always eat a kidney diet and when he won’t I mix a phosphorus binder into his senior diet which is for age 12+ cats and is already lower in phosphorus. Thanks
My very senior cat with kidney disease is eating Hills Precription k/d. Her recent bloods came back normal and her kidney levels are good, however she is developing arthritis in her left hind leg. Can I gv her green lipped mussel powder as a suppliment considering protein n phosphate levels should be kept low?
