Week 1
Sun- OFF
Mon- Calcium
Tue- OFF
Wed- Calcium W/ D3
Thur- OFF
Fri- Calcium
Sat- OFF

Week 2
Sun- OFF
Mon- Calcium
Tue- OFF
Wed- Multi-Vitamin
Thur- OFF
Fri- Calcium

And i Just repeat this over and over. Seems to be working well.

You need everyday of the week calcium without D3, then nothing on saturday, and switch off everyother week between calcium with D3 and mutivitamin and youll have a grea schedule going.

Iv just herd bad things about over calcifying you cham. plus my guy eats an on average about 6-8 crickets + 6-8 worms a day all being dusted on the indicated days. so because of the excess amount of dusted feeders he gets i give him Cal every-other day. But If your Cham isnt a fatass like mine it could def warrant an every day dusting of calcium.....
Keep in mind this is all just my opinion for my little guy. not saying this will work for everyone.

well it usually depends on the supplement brand but most of the tme you should be dusting with calcium at almost every meal. The key is they should be dusted lightly which is why they should be dusted every meal. What brand of calcium do you use?

It also depends what feeders you are using, and what those feeders ate. For example, I wouldnt calcium dust a butterworm, since they already have a good calcium ratio.
