I have never heard of that, but to much calcium can cause impaction which can kill them. Only dust once a day lightly.

My male and female receives calcium 3x a week.
During my male's downtime in health, he actually got a blood test and he said that his calcium levels were a tad high. Wonder how that happened?

You are actually right on with 3 x a week. With yours being full grown adults, you need to cut down. With the calcium levels high, it may be the food you are feeding him. Some greens like Dandelion Greens are high in calcium plus the dusting can give them a little to much, but nothing to worry about. With dusting more than once a day for Juvies it can make the urate hard and cause a plug.
