Hey.
As im a new tortoise owner , I have yet another question..
I was at a local herp shop n' they reccomended a 2 in 1 calcium/vitamin poweder to use 2 - 3 times a week for my young Sulcata.
Its T-Rex brand Herbivorous Reptile Formula, 2:1 Calcium/Phosphorus with vitamins.
It reads "Guaranteed Analysis per 60g :
Calcium (max) 32.4%
Calcium (min) 27.0%
Phosphorus (min) 16.5%
Vitamin A 21,600IU
Vitamin D3 2,160IU
Vitamin C 141 mg.
Is this a well rounded calcium/vitamin suppliment to be adding?
I also have a Cuttlefish Bone ( calcium bone ) placed in his enclosure , as a friend who owns a Russian Tortoise reccomended it as they can pick off as much calcium as they want when they feel the need for it...
is this sufficient?
