Liquid calcium

[Emilykristin]

My baby beardie I believe is calcium deficient due to being set up with the wrong lighting, what is a good liquid calcium to give to him? Is flukers okay? Or other store bought? I've read something about something for humans? Just wanna get my baby feeling better, the new lighting definitely seem to be helping, but he just hasn't quite gotten his complete appetite back. When I give him the liquid, should I hold off on dusting his crickets? And should his veggies be dusted with the powdered kind regularly? How much should I give him?

I think your new T5 should help out quite a bit. It looks like he's in decent shape and is still quite young so I'd just offer some calcium (without D3) powder on his bugs and see how he does with that. The Repashy SuperCal NoD is what I use and it's good.

Hello,

Do you already have the liquid calcium to give to him?
When you start her on liquid calcium you can hold off on the dustings of the powder for him
because that would be too much.
You are using the T5 Reptisun 10% tube bulb now? That is a great bulb so the lighting will be great for helping her absorb his calcium & vitamins.
Depending on which liquid calcium you give, the dose/amount will vary on what you give him.
