Supplementation question

Hey everyone! I've had Apollo (veiled chameleon) with me since saturday (he's about 3 months old) and he seems to be enjoying exploring his new home. Today he finally went for some crickets that I gave him, which was nice, never seen a chameleon strike in person, I think i might get addicted to watching it!

Now for the real question:

So, the manager (who breeds veiled chameleons) sold me some repti calcium without d3 and she said that I should dust every feed.
I also bought some reptivite with d3 and was told to dust 2 times a week while Apollo is still young and change to 2 times a month when he's adult.

She also told me that since reptivite has d3 on it, I wouldn't need to buy calcium with d3, i should just mix the reptivite and the repti calcium.

Is this correct? I left the store believing that she knew what she was talking about, and seems like a decent supplementation plan, but I'd like to hear the opinions of the other experts.

It's my first chameleon and I really dont want to mess it up!

Cheers,
Nuno

Congrats on your new boy. I recommend calcium without D3 at every feeding at that age and the Reptivite with d3 twice a month. You might find my blog for new keepers helpful.

Thank you very much Jann for the help. Should I buy calcium with d3 or should I skip it alltogether since reptivite has d3?

When I dust with reptivite, should I also add calcium without d3 or is it too much?

Sorry, the small details are what's killing me

Cheers!

You are welcome!

All you need is the calcium without D3 and the Reptivite with D3. On the days that you use Reptivite do not use the calcium without D3.
