Calcium Powder w/out D3, lightly dusted every feeding, ofcourse skipping a dusting once in awhile is accepted fine, also Calcium Powder w/D3 about twice a month once again lightly dusted, along with Herptavite, around 3 times a month also lightly dusted. Soon as you get all three they will last a considerably loooonnngg tiiiimmmee. And Welcome to the Forum

I think babies want D3 and Vitamins a bit more often than adults...I'm thinking that's a good schedule until you hear from someone who had raised babies.

if you are questioning about supplements, are you sure you have all the correct lighting you need and such?

In all the years that I've raised them, I have always given the babies the supplements the same way I do for the adults....phos.-free calcium at most feedings (and since they get fed more often, that will mean that they get supplemented more often with the calcium) and the phos.-free calcium/D3 twice a month and the vitamins twice a month. The vitamins and D3 are meant to ensure that they get some without overdoing it and leaving them to (hopefully) get the rest of the D3 from their exposure to the UVB and the rest of the vitamins from their diet.
