Yes, Rebekka is right. Reptocal has phosphorus in it and that takes away from the calcium absorption in gliders. There's other stuff that is just like RepCal and I can't remember what it is but go to the pet store and look at calcium supplements for reptiles that doesn't have phosphorus and that'll do. Ask the pet store people. Maybe they'll have some idea. Good luck. smile
