Calcium confusion

I have been using fluker's repta-calcium supplement for a while now, as well as tetrafauna's reptocal w/ d3, along with the reptolife from the same company.

Are these any good, they have worked for years without problems, my concern is whether the Fluker's one has d3 in it, it does not specify if it does. I was wondering if you guys had any more insight on it as i am try to raise a few hatchlings calcium levels, but i don't want to OD them with d3. Any help would be great.

What do you guys use for a pure calcium carbonate supplement?

I've got a 4oz jar of the Fluker's Repta-Calcium and it lists the ingredients as "Limestone flour, flavor, D-activated animal sterol (source of vitamin D-3)." So yes, the fluker's does have D3, even though it's not right on the front of the label.

I've used the Rep-cal stuff before and haven't had a problem.

Actually now that I look it does say it right on the front to the right of the image "Vitamin D enriched powder". I did a quick google search and found some without, so i'm guessing that if it doesn't list it in the ingredients it actually doesn't have D3... sorry for the mix-up

I use "Bone-Aid", it's straight calcium carbonate, and sticks really well to mealworms.
