I dont so much use vitamins with my blueys. Like I'll powder some over their food maybe once every week to two. But its very important in Bearded Dragons. Haven't you read caresheets, especially since yours are babies. They need lots of calcium and herptivite..... and plenty UV!!

I occasionally dust with calcium powder, that's it. Maybe once every 3-4 weeks and only if he hasn't had snails for a while.

I use them with Frankie more often then the rest of the crew because she use to be so picky. I haven't used it as much this summer because she's being eating all of her veggies.

Just take some of it off, like the quote, or condense it. It just takes up too much space...
