Hello everyone, I have a 3 month old female veiled and I haven't even had her a month. Everything is going good with her I dust with calcium wo d3 on a couple of feeders a day and have only givin supplements once wo beta cartene.. do they really need the vit A? and I plan to give her the vitamins twice a month. Just today little white specks where showing on both nostrils and help would be greatly appreciated and I know this site has helped me tons she is in screened cage basking temp around 80-83 she moves around often to change basks lol and never seems dehydrated though I mist her once maybe twice a day. Thanks everyone I'm sure that I am just over worried about her.

the little white specks are normal. Some say that is how chams get rid of excess calcium and others think its them expelling salts. Do you use purified water to spray/drip?

nothing to worry about. It is not from the calcium. Keep dusting with that. It is excess salts being excreted through their nostrils.

welcome the mhite on the nostils is probably salt build up its usually because of your water condition. hope that helps
