Calcium deficiency is a major dietary problem in captive reptiles which often leads to life-threatening conditions like Metabolic Bone Disease (MBD). Exo Terra Calcium Powder Supplement contains high levels of phosphorus-free calcium to help ensure long-term health, plus minerals to maximize calcium absorption.
This supplement DOES NOT contain vitamin D3, a nutrient essential to healthy calcium absorption. Reptiles naturally make this vitamin from exposure to appropriate levels of natural or artificial UVB. However if your reptile does not have an appropriate UVB lamp in its enclosure, you will need to use a calcium supplement which contains vitamin D3, like Exo Terra Calcium Powder + D3.
Even if you do provide UVB to your reptile, it is a good idea to occasionally provide a vitamin D3 supplement to ensure best health.
