As far as calcium dusting goes does he/she need d3? I don’t know how much light he/she is getting. I have a 10.0 t5 hood light, with a basking spot 4 inches away from the light. Should I get the calcium dust with or without d3? (I also have a vitamin dust with d3 in it)

W the D 3 5 x per week and vitamins w/ beta carotene 2 x per week -- The T 5 is too close for 4" --- depending on the screen it can sit on top of screen but it MUST BE a wide hole type - 8-10 inches w/ basking decor directly below it --- if inside the tank it should be 12-15 inches directly above the basking decor piece

So if I’m getting this right, the light is okay as long as it is top of the screen? And I need the calcium with d3 in it?

Also, is this vitamin dust okay for 2 times a week? I have zoo meds reptivite vitamins with d3. Would that work?

What kind of screen please post a pic of it--- fine mesh like a screen door it needs to be inside - if it's a wide hole type it can stay on top- the distance depends on placement-- one we figure out the screen I can tell you distance-- this is crucial- I think so for the vitamins-

I think that clicking on those should take you to the photos. Let me know if that works!

Yes and that is a wide hole type -- make sure you have the UVB directly over the basking decor piece w/ 8-10 inches under it -- bulb will need to be changed out in one year approx I recommend a month prior to

please take your decor piece and lay the big stick part down on the floor w/ the big trunk part directly under the UVB --- measure how far it is from UVB

Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
is tape safe for fixing something in my leopard geckos hide?
Day 3 of brumation. It's a struggle. I really miss my little guy. 😔
Mirage entered brumation yesterday, I'm gonna miss hanging out with my little guy.
