I've noticed that many people use Repcal (myself included). Repcal Calcium contains oyster shell. Can reptiles actually digest oyster shell?

Would it be better to use Zoomed's Calcium which is calcium carbonate instead?

Hello,

Most calcium carbonate is actual oyster shell calcium. It is very easily digestible & has been used for alot of years for good absorption.
So no worries. The Repcal calcium is just fine.
