Hello everybody, i'm new to these forums, and to reptiles as a matter of fact. I've finally purchased a leopard gecko, however the calcium issue is a little confusing to me, having never owned a reptile before. I'm aware of what the calcium is needed for, and also about d3. So here's my question.
I have a product called Komodo cricket dust, which is 99% calcium and contains no d3. I'm under the impression i dust the food in this 5 days a week. Can i also leave some of this in a dish in the vivarium?
Secondly i have nutrobal, which is a multivitamin and calcium balancer containing d3. I'm assuming i use this the other 1-2 days a week and i do not put this one in the vivarium 24/7?.
People seem to have very conflicting opinions on this. I'm just after a general guideline, i don't want to be giving my gecko the wrong things D: Many thanks
I should also add, my gecko is a juvinile.
