A calcium dust for reptiles and amphibians, made from Australian oyster shell with vitamin D3 from lichen rather than a synthetic source. It is the D3-containing version, which matters: animals kept under good UVB usually need plain calcium most feeds and D3 only occasionally, while animals with limited UVB rely on dietary D3. If you are already using a D3 multivitamin, do not stack this on top of it every feed.
85g and 170g tubs. Works as a dust on live feeders or mixed into the Insectivore and other Animal Wellbeing gel diets.
