[QUOTE="clyde612, post: 1964359, member: 110538"] I want to talk about how often beardies should be getting calcium and vitamins in their diet. I've been to some many different sites and they all have different numbers and opinions. It has come to my attention that I may have been giving my beardie too much calcium, so I'm going to back down. I read on a website that babies should be getting calcium supplements 7 days a week, but the website did not specify if it meant every meal or once a day. I usually mix the roaches with calcium (every meal) in a separate bin, so he has only been eating the calcium that actually sicks onto the bugs, there's not a lot of access in the bowl, not sure if that makes a difference. Anyways, is it safer to air on the side of less calcium or more calcium? More vitamins or less vitamins. I also have a multi vitamin with beta carotene (instead of vitamin A) that I give maybe every other day, and will give less as he gets older. And then there is Calcium with D3. I have a ReptiSun 10 HO T5. I only give him the calcium with D3 once a week (instead of plain calcium). Do beardies with proper lighting need this? Is it a good idea to supplement some D3 or safer not to? I feel bad that I have been maybe giving him too much calcium, but I've read so so much and I just want some clearer answers on vitamins so I know what to do in the future, especially as he grows up and needs less vitamins.
