That's what I was doing before except I was dusting without d3 at every feeding, which was everyday. Hopefully cutting him down on some food and alternating the days, fixes the calcium levels and swelling in his casque and cheeks! I'll keep you updated :) thank you for all your help!

Thank you! I just had blood work and cultures done to see if there was any sign of an infection present. That'll be back in a few days to week!

Any specific wattage?

I currently have the T5 HO 5.0 UVB light and hood that I got a few months back at Repticon. However, I still use the daylight blue 60W bulb for heat/UVA.. do I need this bulb still or is there a better heating/UVA bulb than this one?

I will look into getting a Solarmeter 6.5 then! Thank you, what other lighting source do you use for your chameleons besides the T5 HO 5.0 or 6% bulbs?

Okay, thank you! Do you think the 5.0 T5HO fixture is good enough with it being 8-9" away?

Thank you! I will cut down on his food and only feed him 2-3 times weekly and dust with the Calcium without d3 then. I'll do the D3 and Multivitamins twice monthly and hopefully he gets better! Fingers crossed 🤞🏻 thank you for your help!

Okay thank you, for supplements I use the Fluker's calcium without d3 that is phosphorus free every feed, I used to use Zoo Med but I was told that supplement isn't very good. I use Rep-Cal Herptivite multivitamins and Rep-Cal phos free calcium with d3, twice monthly.

It is a 5.0, I was told if it's a 4x4' cage then you wouldn't need anything past a 5.0. The branch is 10" from UVB bulb to basking branch- my vet said 10-12" was a good height. Unless do you think it should be further down because I can move it, if so?

Yes I can when I get home- I'm at work until 8 pm. I have the T5HO Reptisun lighting for him currently

Okay, thank you!

Okay thank you so much, I will cut him back. What supplements should I stick with, the Fulkers without D3 every feeding and then multivitamins every other week... or do I do the Calcium Plus twice weekly like my vet recommended?

Okay, makes sense- I will dust them less when I feed. I have the Reptisun T5HO fixture and his basking branch is about 10 inches from the top.

Thank you! I will cut down on his feedings. Would you recommend 1-2 feeders 3x a week?

Hello, I don't feed him much kale anymore because he doesn't take interest in it. He eats more sweet potato now, every week or two.

It has been gradual, over months that the edema has been happening in his casque and cheeks- I took him to the vet when it first started and he said there was no reason to be concerned but now it's very prominent. I did get the T5HO fixture for him and I had x-rays done on his casque and his...

Usually they're coated with the supplement- I can take a picture the next time I feed him.

Thank you! So you're thinking that how I've been dusting should be fine?

The results didn't go too in depth whether it included d3 or not, I think it was just overall calcium levels and my vet wanted to bring them down. However I noticed the Calcium Plus includes D3 so I'm not sure if it would be overkill to just use this supplement twice weekly or if I should stick...

@kinyonga Hello! Do you know a good schedule for supplementation? I'm having the issue with too much calcium at 15.1 in the blood.. my vet suggests stopping every other supplement and just using Repashy Calcium Plus twice weekly. However, I know this product has high Vitamin A and Vitamin D3...
