Just came back from local arav vet.
He said Arcadia bulbs are more than enough for uroplatus..
-That dusting wasn't a problem (but with good bulbs like Arcadia I can do plain calcium)
- that his jaw was a bit soft hut he should be fine now that he has the UV and gutloaded food
- that big problem with reptiles is not proper gutloading. That crickets need 8/1 calcium gutloade to give the animals proper calcium
- my gutloaded of potato, carrot, apple, cricket block, timberline cricket aid, Pangea insect Grub are all bad because they don't have the calcium needed
- he recommends repashy superfood and water for gutloading
- he said tests aren't necessary for littlefoot
- this was the same vet I saw for my chams last year who ended up passing. I still feel iffy. I wish tests were done...View attachment 43260
From what I know, the advice your vet gave you about this looks good. Repashy Superfood and water crystals make an excellent gutload, so that should help a lot. Glad he's improving!!
