Reptile Vitamins & Healthcare

Make sure your reptile gets the nutrients he needs with reptile supplements from Chewy. In nature, reptiles are exposed to a wide variety of foods that they just can't get when domesticated. The two most important vitamins and minerals for reptiles are vitamin D3 and Calcium. Vitamin D3 is absorbed through the skin from direct sunlight. Caged reptiles often can't get the vitamin D3 they need for optimal health. Likewise, many reptiles have calcium deficiencies. A vitamin D3 deficiency can lead to secondary hyperparathyroidism which gone undetected can lead to broken or kinked limbs and spine. A severe calcium deficiency can lead to metabolic bone disease in your reptile. Signs include bumps along the vertebral column of the back and tail, softening or hard swelling of the jaw and softening of the plastron or carapace in turtles and tortoises.
