Zoo Med Repti Calcium with D3, 3oz

Zoo Med Repti Calcium with D3, 3oz, is a premium ultra-fine calcium carbonate supplement designed for reptiles and amphibians, enriched with vitamin D3 and free from phosphorus. Its unique precipitated form offers a higher surface area, enhancing absorption and digestibility for optimal health benefits.

Feeder insects raised in captivity often lack sufficient calcium, a vital nutrient for reptiles and amphibians. Calcium supports critical functions such as bone strength, muscle activity, and nerve signaling, making supplementation essential for their well-being.

In the wild, reptiles synthesize vitamin D3 by basking in sunlight’s UVB rays. However, indoor pets without access to natural light or proper UVB setups require dietary vitamin D3 to prevent serious conditions like metabolic bone disease (MBD), which can be life-threatening if unaddressed.

Ensure your reptile thrives by dusting feeder insects lightly with this calcium powder before meals, providing a simple and effective way to boost their nutrition!

Usage Guidelines:

Insectivores and Omnivores: Put feeder insects in a plastic bag with Repti Calcium and shake gently to coat them with the supplement.

Herbivores: Mix about 1/2 teaspoon of Repti Calcium into food per 5 oz (142 g) of body weight weekly.
