My babies are in their starter viv at the moment they have exactly the same setup as their new homes when they separate. They have a 10.0 UVB bulb and a basking light of 40w in the smaller viv and 60w in their big viv's. The dimensions for their big viv is 5ft l x 2ft w x 2.5ft h with lots of cactus's and a hide and pebbles, and branches to bask on. I'm quite happy that all of the above is correct, if not I would take any advice offered!
My question is this:
I dust their food daily with nutrobal vitamins, I alternate the others one day with the multi vitamin and the next with calci-dust except with one difference, I was told by several ''experts'' and read on a few different sites that I should do the same thing with the babies AND have a bowl of calci-dust in the viv with the beardies, so not knowing any different I have for the last 7 days had a small bowl of it in the viv with them, I know (or think I know) they can't over dose on calcium but they play in it and eat it from the bowl so I stopped giving the additional calcium (calci-dust not vitamin) on their food 3 days ago, The nutrobal multi vitamin has calcium in it too 200mg to be precise in a 50g tub of dust per gram. The calci-dust says 400mg per gram in a 150g tub.
Can any of you advise me properly on the correct dosage of calcium and vitamin so I know I'm not causing any unseen damage to them.
