d3. jeremy my heeler looks like shes a crack head now and shes running around sniffing a bunch its kinda funny.

Laughing at the the thought of how that must look! LOL
![]() I would say you can use the one with VitD3 for a couple days, but I wouldnt go longer than that. I believe the D3 can build up in the liver and organ toxicity/harm. Instead, gutload your insects heavily with a calcium rich diet. |

I bet its not half as "scary" as dropping a whole box of 1000 crickets!
(Been there...done that...)

I would just skip the dusting altogether until you can get more. D3 builds up and can be toxic, too little can be better than too much and the d3 added is just a sort of safety net anyway to supplement the UVB bulbs. So long as you just gutload your insects well with calcium rich food, you should be fine until you can get another bottle of sans d3. Just order it now...or go buy it tomorrow.

Vince from screameleons saidfor my cham to use calcium with d3 every other day. He said that because I'm raising Waldo inside. Was he wrong to say d3 every other day?

Omit the d3 and do it every other week instead, I think. Use regular calcium w/o d3 every other feeding if he is a baby. Maybe a more experienced member can chime in?
