out door veiled chameleon female

[Lady Luck]

I live in south africa. I have a pregnant veiled chameleon and would like to know if I still need to feed her calcium powder if she stays outside

Most insects we produce for feeders are high in phosphorus and low in calcium, but if she's getting "wild" insects that might not be the case for them (consider that wild chams don't get calcium on their insects at all). I think I would lightly dust any commercially produced feeders with plain calcium (no added vitamin D3). I assume you are gutloading the commercial feeders well and that's important. Wild insects she happens to catch are probably OK without.

Only feeding her the occasional giant meal worm. Dubia roaches and ckrickets mostly. I feed all my insects,carrot,dog food and proneutro. Is there any danger in over feeding calcium?
