Vetark Nutrobal Calcium & Vitamin Supplement for Reptiles 100g

Vetark Nutrobal is a high-calcium vitamin and mineral dusting powder developed specifically for insectivorous reptiles and birds. It addresses one of the most common dietary shortfalls in captive keeping: the poor calcium content and imbalanced calcium-to-phosphorus ratio found in feeder insects such as crickets, mealworms, and locusts.

Why Calcium Balance Matters

The ratio of calcium to phosphorus in a reptile's diet directly affects bone development, skeletal health, and reproductive function. Live feeder insects are naturally low in calcium and high in phosphorus — a combination that, over time, leads to metabolic bone disease and other deficiency conditions. Vetark Nutrobal corrects this with a Ca:P ratio of 46:1, making it one of the most potent calcium balancers available for reptile keepers.

Nutritional Profile

Each gram of Vetark Nutrobal delivers 200mg of calcium and 150IU of vitamin D3, alongside a comprehensive vitamin and mineral complex. The full contents per gram include:

• 200mg calcium and 150IU vitamin D3
• Vitamins A, C, E, K, B1, B2, B6, and B12
• Folic acid, nicotinic acid, pantothenic acid, biotin, and choline
• Minerals including phosphorus, sodium, iron, cobalt, iodine, manganese, zinc, selenium, and copper

Which Animals Benefit

Vetark Nutrobal is particularly important for species whose diet consists mainly of insects — including bearded dragons, leopard geckos, chameleons, and day geckos. Reptiles fed predominantly on lean meat also benefit from supplementation. Growing tortoises and other chelonia require calcium for healthy shell development, and larger lizards and crocodilians rely on adequate mineral intake for normal bone growth.

How to Use

Vetark Nutrobal is used as a dusting powder — applied directly to live feeder insects immediately before offering them to the animal. This is the standard and most effective delivery method for insectivorous reptiles, ensuring the supplement is consumed alongside the prey item rather than being left in the enclosure.

For keepers managing insectivore diets, Vetark Nutrobal provides a well-established, vet-formulated approach to closing the nutritional gap that feeder insects alone cannot fill.
