Do I need to give my chameleon a d3 supplement

[kobe24]

I have a 6 month old male veiled chameleon and I give him a calcium supplement without d3 in it everyday with its food. My question is should I also get a calcium supplement with d3 to give him twice a month because that's what I've read. Thanks

Yes aswell as a multivitamin twice a month

Should i give the multivitamin more than twice a month or just give him the multivitamin twice a month.

Twice a month

Unless he gets lots and lots of outside time. No d3 is necessary.

D3 from supplements can build up in the system and lead to health issues. But giving a bit of it twice a month IMHO ensures that it gets some without overdosing it and leaving it to produce the rest from its exposure to the UVB.
