Vetark Nutrobal Calcium & Vitamin Supplement for Reptiles 50g

Vetark Nutrobal is a high-calcium vitamin and mineral balancer designed specifically for insectivorous reptiles and birds. It directly addresses one of the most common nutritional shortfalls in captive reptile keeping: the poor calcium content of live feeder insects such as crickets, mealworms, and locusts.

Why Calcium Balance Matters

The ratio of calcium to phosphorus in a reptile's diet has a direct impact on bone development, growth, and reproductive health. Feeder insects naturally carry an inverted or inadequate Ca:P ratio, which over time contributes to metabolic bone disease and other deficiency-related conditions. Vetark Nutrobal is formulated with a Ca:P ratio of 46:1, making it one of the most effective tools available for correcting calcium-deficient diets.

Nutritional Profile

Each gram of Vetark Nutrobal delivers 200mg of calcium and 150IU of vitamin D3, alongside a comprehensive suite of supporting nutrients:

• 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

Nutrobal is particularly important for species whose diet consists primarily of insects — including chameleons, geckos, agamids, and other insectivores. Reptiles fed predominantly on lean meat also benefit from supplementation. Growing chelonians (tortoises and turtles) require calcium for healthy shell development, and larger lizards and crocodilians rely on adequate calcium for normal skeletal growth. Vetark also recommends considering ACE-High alongside Nutrobal for large lizards and chelonians.

How to Use

Vetark Nutrobal is used as a dusting powder, applied directly to live feeder insects before offering them to the animal. This is a straightforward method that ensures the supplement is ingested at the point of feeding without disrupting normal feeding behaviour.

For any keeper managing insectivorous or primarily meat-fed reptiles, Vetark Nutrobal provides a well-established, veterinary-formulated solution to one of the most persistent gaps in captive reptile nutrition.
