@Will would you recommend herptivite as a daily supplement? Any idea what supplement A and supplement B were in the first study?

I don't know, I think that was a conference presentation made into a paper. So, maybe a liable issue?? They did the study in Europe, so maybe something entirely nor readily available here. I just don't know.

I recommend what I use. Vionate and layer crumbles.

I tried to find a tortoise layer feed in a google search, but could not. Are you talking about chicken feed?

@Will do you wet it first? Do you give that as normal feed or a portion of their diet? I like your thinking. A good calicum phosphorus ratio and 16% protein and other nutrients micronutrients. I could just take it from my normal chicken feed! :-D The only thing i would be concerned about is the fast release energy from the corn. There are some that supplement wheat for corn because it is a complex carbohydrate. It is interesting you mention that because I have been contemplating the pros and cons of using wheat with limestone to balance the Cah ratio, and maybe an unflavored pea or soy protein supplement.
