No, I don't do this. I'm not thinking of doing this. And I did not pull this theory out of thin air.
I was talking with someone who has been in steady contact with a pretty well known and respected Bearded Dragon breeder for a little while now. I was told that instead of giving UVB lights, they just supplement with D3 dust because UVB bulbs "muddies up their color and makes it darker" so giving the vitamin to them straight will be sufficient and not mess with their color. I personally have never experienced any negative affects from quality UVB bulbs!
Just thought I'd throw this out there for discussion as I couldn't find anything through search and it really shocked me.
