122: Optimizing Your Reptile's Diet | Dr. Chapman DVM
Dr. Kelsey Chapman returns to the podcast to discuss reptile nutrition! In this episode, Dr. Chapman explains how to properly supplement Vitamin A to avoid deficiency and what to look for on your container of “reptile multi-vitamin” prior to using it. She also describes the dangers of over-using grocery store “greens” for herbivorous reptiles, specifically land tortoises, whether or not water should be offered to arid species and if spinach is safe to feed to your reptile or feeder insects. We wrap up the episode with rapid-fire questions that were submitted via Instagram.
