I know I have read a couple of things on here as far as calcium and vitamins. How often should I be supplementing my new hatchlings? I have the containers of the herpivite (sp?) and the container of calcium.

Hi Dee,

I use the TNT supplement from Carolina Pet Supply every other day and use Reptical 2-3 times per week for all of my torts since they are inside. That includes my Leopard hatchling.

Hi Anja, I went on Carolina Pet and I saw one w/ or w/out probiotics. Which do you recommend?

I use the one with probiotics :) Just for the added beneficial bacteria to the gut flora. I figure why not give them all the help we can since we keep them captive ya know?

And to correct myself, my young Box Turtles that wont hibernate this year (one had some shell issues this year) and the baby Leopard get the Reptical, my adults do not. Just the TNT for the adults.
