Somewhere in my threads I had asked about calcium and vitamin supplements. Now I can't find it. Right now for my adult bearded dragon I give a multivitamin on Monday and Friday. I give Calcium with vitamin D3 on Wednesday and Sunday. On Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday I give Calcium without Vitamin D3. Is this correct? She has a T5 HO 10.0 34 inch 39 watt UVB light.

Thats good, but honestly if your uvb is on par the d3 is negligible because the uvb triggers them to make their own.

I second what Xp29 said about vitamin D3. You don’t need to supplement it since your UVB fixture is perfect as it is, too much D3 can cause a vitamin toxicity or health problems.

Do you do multivitamin once or twice per week? I have her at twice a week because she isn't always a big salad eater.

Aww your profile picture is precious ❤️‍🩹
Hey! I'm planning on ordering a 4x2x2 for my next beardie but I'm worried about lighting. I have a UVA and a UVB but they are small (the UVA just being a bulb and the UVB being 12 ish inches?) My house is drafty so I need a strong light that puts off quite a good amount of heat, any suggestions?
