Dusting

[Rune]

What is a good dusting schedule for a 4 month old male veiled cham?

 

[mbondy]

• Calcium with no D3 or phosphorous daily
• Calcium with D3 twice a month
• Multivitamin 1-2 times a month depending on brand

There was an article at some point about adding vitamin A into your chams diet. Take a look at this article.

Thank you
But what days of the month do you suggest giving the Multi vit and D3?

Well when I had a panther/veiled I gave D3 on week 1 and 3 of the month and a multivitam on week 2 and 4. I personally just picked Saturdays and dusted with plain calcium every day but Saturdays.

still have yet to see a picture of what people consider a proper amount of dusting. especially to new members. light dusting can vary large amounts from person to person.

would love to see how a veteran dusts

Awesome, it's great to have some resources to just copy and paste or link a thread instead of explaining it over and over again. Pics definitely will help!

agreed.................

Hoj had a great point which somehow I forgot to mention, it depends on the brand. Typically that is the schedule but it's important to know how much D3 is in your supplements and what strength is.

here is a first draft LOL

Oh, yeah, my reptivite is d3 with vitamin.

 

[Hoj]

i personally like reptivite it gives much lower doses of d3 and has vit a in it.. i would use it once a week and than a plain calcium 4 times a week, with well gutloaded crickets..
