vitamins with D3 or without?

[belladragon1]

What vitamins should I be giving my bearded dragon? Bella is now 4 years old. When I first got her 4 years ago I was giving her Zoomed's Reptivite. Now I am giving her Reptolife plus. But I have read that some should have D3 and some should not. How do I know what the right vitamins are that I should give her? I just want to make sure I am giving her the right thing. Can someone give me any advice?

Depending on what UV source you use is how you determine what calcium to use. If you are using a florescent tube (linear) then use with D3 if you are using a higher output such as a MVB then use without D3. For the vitamins use almost any vitamin just ensure it does not have vitamin A but, instead contains beta-cerotene :wink:

Thank you for your input. I just wanted to make sure that I am giving her the right type. Ive always used the ExoTerra ReptiGlo 10.0 UVB. So I should be using the calcium with D3 correct?
