You want to give them calcium with D3 unless they get regular exposure to direct sunlight. D3 helps them absorb calcium the lights you buy including MVB don't allow them to produce as much D3 as direct sun light. If they get direct sunlight on a regular basis then you can get the calcium w/out D3 for them. I believe that as long as they get a couple of hours of natural sunlight a week you can get away with/out D3 but I have to double check. I have always given all my dragons calcium with D3 even when I let them outside in spring and summer months with no problems...
I just started taking him outside, but he's still a little jumpy and I'm afraid if he gets lose in the grass I won't be able to catch him. The pet stores around here carry the rep-cal with D3 and no phosphorous so I'll pick some up today. Thanks again!
I'm a girl that likes reptiles, tattoos, tech, cars, and F1 races. Now if only I had more room in my house for computers and tanks, and a huge garage for cars and trucks...
