Frequently asked questions
What kind of calcium should I give my bearded dragon? Without D3 (if you have a UV lamp) - Exo Terra Calcium or Repti Calcium. With D3 (if the lamp is ULTRA-Vita) - Exo Terra Calcium D3. For young people - daily, for adults - 2-3 times a week.
Is it possible to bathe a reptile in regular water? If from the tap, let it sit for a day or use conditioner to remove chlorine. Chlorine irritates skin and eyes.
What to do if shedding is difficult? Increase the humidity, let them swim in warm water for 20-30 minutes. If the skin does not come off, use moisturizing sprays or veterinary consultation.
