Gecko Nutrition Natural Calcium

Gecko Nutrition Pure Calcium is a pure calcium preparation without vitamin D3 to prevent and compensate for calcium deficiency and its secondary diseases (such as Metabolic bone disease). It supports a healthy calcium metabolism and contributes to the optimal development of the skeleton.

It consists of finely ground red algae. Red seaweed is a natural source of calcium carbonate, which is rich in bioavailable calcium. Compared to other calcium sources such as limestone or chalk, red algae lime offers a higher bioavailability. This allows the body to absorb and utilize the calcium more easily.

Animals that are still growing and especially egg-laying females have a higher need for calcium. The animals often try to compensate for a calcium deficiency by eating substrate, which can lead to severe blockages.

The calcium can be mixed in diets or dusted on feeder insects right before feeding.
