It's good that you are concerned looking for the best way to care for your cham.Well,the tablespoon of powder is WAY too much...good thing you asked.All you need is a pinch so that the crix are lightly covered.Don't overlook greens...they are loaded with calcium and most veiledswill eat...collard,turnip,mustard greens attach a large leaf with a veggie clip and they will munch.If your porch allows the sun in through a screen then your cham.is receiving the D3 that it needs but you should still use at least a small amount of powder b/c the screen filters out SOME of the uvb.I wouldn't bother with liquid calcium.I have raised veileds bearded dragons for 16 years and never used it.Don't forget to gut-load the crix...they can eat greens as well as oatmeal or bran,just don't let anything get moldy.Natural food is preferred over the commercial crick. food,but some people buy it anyway.
