{"product_id":"vetark-nutrobal-250g","title":"Vetark Nutrobal Calcium \u0026 Vitamin Supplement for Reptiles 250g","description":"\u003cp\u003eVetark Nutrobal is a high-calcium vitamin and mineral balancer developed specifically for insectivorous reptiles and birds. It addresses one of the most common dietary shortfalls in captive keeping: the chronically low calcium content of live feeder insects such as crickets, mealworms, and locusts. Used as a dusting powder, it is a staple supplement for any keeper relying heavily on live insect feeders.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy Calcium Balance Matters\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ratio of calcium to phosphorus in a reptile's diet directly affects bone development, growth, and reproductive health. Live insects are naturally high in phosphorus and low in calcium, which creates an imbalance that can lead to serious long-term health problems. Vetark Nutrobal carries a calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of 46:1, making it highly effective at correcting this deficit in insect-based diets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat's Inside\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach gram of Vetark Nutrobal provides 200mg of calcium and 150IU of vitamin D3, alongside a comprehensive micronutrient profile. The full formulation includes:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVitamins A, C, E, K, B1, B2, B6, and B12\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFolic acid, nicotinic acid, pantothenic acid, biotin, and choline\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMinerals including phosphorus, sodium, iron, cobalt, iodine, manganese, zinc, selenium, and copper\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhich Animals Benefit\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eVetark Nutrobal is particularly valuable for species fed primarily on insects — including chameleons, day geckos, and other insectivorous lizards. Reptiles fed predominantly on lean meat also benefit from its calcium and vitamin content. Growing chelonians require calcium for healthy shell development, and larger lizards and crocodilians rely on adequate mineral intake for normal bone growth. Vetark also recommends pairing Nutrobal with ACE-High for large lizards and chelonians.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to Use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eApply Vetark Nutrobal as a dusting powder directly onto live feeder insects immediately before offering them to your animals. The 250g tub provides a substantial supply for regular supplementation routines.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor keepers who take their animals' long-term health seriously, Vetark Nutrobal is a well-established, trusted part of a sound supplementation programme — backed by a formulation built around genuine nutritional science rather than marketing.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peregrine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54148881940817,"sku":"VVS010","price":18.82,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0963\/0403\/8225\/files\/VVS010_1.jpg?v=1782602866","url":"https:\/\/viperia.co.uk\/products\/vetark-nutrobal-250g","provider":"Viperia UK","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
