Bearded dragon got into calcium with D3! HELP

[toddthedragon]

Hi, I am concerned fr my 1 year old bearded dragon, Todd. She live in a large viv with correct lighting, reptile carpet, a lay box 6.5 in by 16 in, ( she has been showing signs of infertile eggs. ) On the floor by her cage I have what I call her vitamin tray. It is a large dish with small piles of all of her vitamins on it. I dust her superworms and roaches with the raw calcium every day ( since I am almost positive she is gravid ) and calcium with d3 once per week. Today I was letting her run loose in her room. She had pooped on the floor so I quickly ran across the hall to get paper towels. When I cam back I saw her EATING the calcium with d3. I tried to get it out of her mouth but I don't know if she swallowed any... should I be concerned? She seems totally fine and is sitting on my computer while I am typing this, she loves my laptop :lol: Thanks for any help!

Hello,

That does happen! I wouldn't worry about it, the supplement wont hurt her & since it doesn't happen often then the extra will probably be good for her. LOL
If you are concerned about harder urates, you can back off on the dusting for a day or two & increase her greens & or oral fluids to help her flush it through. She will be fine.
