Phosphorus-Free Calcium w/ vitD3 Ultrafine Powder.
Is that one ok or should I be using something else?

They need quite a bit of vitamin D3 while growing, so just relaying on a UVB bulb to make vitamin D3 isn't a good idea. It's just fine if you have an adult tortoise to relay just on the UVB bulb, but I've seen far to many hatchlings die from MBD.
So I would recommend having D3 in any calcium supplement your using while inside. When you have them outside you can use a straight calcium supplement.
Thats just fine Maeva~Michelle
