Do I need to use a calcium supplement for my tortoise?

admin — Mon, 29 Nov 2010 03:23:41 +0000

Any turtle or tortoise kept indoors needs to be fed calcium supplements. The calcium supplements should include Vitamin D3 and should be accompanied by a good UV lighting system for maximum beneficial effects.

Any turtle or tortoise kept outdoors should be supplemented with calcium without Vitamin D3.
