Brand choices

[thomas041]

Hello once again its me with more dumbearse questions sorry, but its good to talk right.

I am looking into the brands for for lighting/supplements and wondered if anyone knew of ones to stay clear of, or which are the best to use for a veiled.
Is it true that there is no supplement on the market yet percifically for Cham's and that they are all generic reptile supplements made from 2 part Vitamin D3 and 1 part Calcium, this differs depending on sex though. Dont hurl abuse at me, you were all learners once.

Thank you pep's

You are UK based correct? The standard UVB light that everyone recommends is a 5.0 linear (as in tube and NOT the coil) Reptisun light. For a basking light you can use a standard 60w house bulb.

Supplements, I use the Calypso Calcium powder, which is exactly what it says on the tin, and Nutrobal, which has your Calcium, D3 and vitamins in. They seem to be the standard ones in the UK. When I had a young veiled i used the nutrobal once a week, the calcium powder the rest of the time. And it is just a small pinch of it that you use, you don't want the feeders looking like ghosts!
