Calcium

spot012 Oct 24, 2004 01:31 PM

Ok, I had calcium in my leo's tank but it had D3, and from reading the posts on here too much D3 is bad, so is there a type of calcium specifically for reptiles that doesn't have D3? I really need to out some calcium in there..so any help would be much appriciated!

It will say in the ingredients lable if it has d3. You can find sme at almost any pestore. Dust the crix/mealworms with calcium with d3 and leave a bowl in the cage that has calcium without d3. Hope this helps.

I personally dont know of any calcium substances that dont have d3 in them, but i was comparing the stuff i use now (leopard gecko dust) with the stuff i used to use before (reptical). The reptical has 219,000 IU/Kilo and the leopard gecko dust has 4,000 IU/Kilo, and thats the lowest i've seen. So if u cant find any i'd go with the leopard gecko dust.
