Serpentia Calcium with Magnesium 100g – Natural Calcium & Magnesium Supplement for Reptiles

Premium calcium and magnesium supplement for reptiles

Serpentia Calcium with Magnesium Powder is a finely milled blend of natural calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate, designed to support strong bones, healthy muscles and normal neurological function in reptiles and amphibians. This balanced mineral profile reflects what many species would naturally access in the wild.

Magnesium plays an essential role in calcium utilisation, helping regulate storage within the bones and supporting healthy muscle contraction and nerve activity. When combined with pure calcium carbonate, this supplement provides a complete mineral source ideal for daily use.

The ultra-fine texture ensures excellent adhesion to feeder insects and fresh foods, allowing reptiles to absorb these essential minerals efficiently. This formula is suitable for all species kept under appropriate UVB lighting or provided with dietary vitamin D3.
