Arcadia Earth Pro revitalize d3 100g

• 21.74% total calcium - a genuine calcium load rather than a lightly-fortified filler powder.
• Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) at 5,000 IU/kg - set at a mammal-mimicking level, which Arcadia states is lower than older super-potent D3 powders specifically to reduce the risk of over-supplementation.
• Vitamin A (retinol) 50,000 IU/kg and vitamin E (alpha-tocopherol acetate) 150 IU/kg carried alongside the calcium and D3.
• Bee pollen, full-spectrum carotenoids, amino acids and magnesium (as MgCO3, 8%) rounding out the mineral and antioxidant profile.
• Fine dusting texture designed to coat live food and fresh produce rather than clump on it.
• Made in Britain.

Arcadia describes RevitaliseD3 as rich in naturally sourced earth minerals, bee pollen, full-spectrum carotenoids, amino acids and magnesium, on top of the calcium and vitamin levels in the guaranteed analysis above. Arcadia does not publish a line-by-line ingredient list for this product on its own site or packaging summary, so we have not reproduced one here rather than guess at an order or a set of proportions we cannot confirm.

• Lightly dust - do not coat - live food or fresh produce at a rate of 1 g per 100 g of food, then offer immediately.
• For animals kept under correct UV-B and heat provision, Arcadia's EarthPro feeding programme calls for RevitaliseD3 at feed 8 or feed 16 of the rotation, with a plain calcium powder used at the feeds in between.
• For animals without adequate UV-B provision, use every 2nd to 3rd feed instead.
• Store in a cool, dry place with the tub resealed after use. Do not refrigerate.

Suitable for: all reptile and amphibian species, as the D3-bearing powder within a rotated supplement programme - insectivores, omnivores and herbivorous species fed by dusting live food or fresh produce.

Not suitable for: use as a stand-alone, every-feed supplement. Arcadia's own feeding programme pairs it with a separate plain calcium powder at the feeds in between, rather than using a D3-bearing powder every time.

This is a vitamin D3 concentrate, and oversupplying D3 can cause hypervitaminosis D in reptiles - soft-tissue calcification from too much calcium being drawn into the bloodstream, particularly in species already producing their own D3 under good UV-B lighting. Arcadia formulates RevitaliseD3 to mammal-mimicking D3 levels specifically to reduce this risk against older, more concentrated powders, but the feed-rotation schedule above should still be followed rather than dusting every feed regardless of species or lighting.

Correct UV-B provision remains the primary route to vitamin D3 for diurnal, sun-basking species. This powder supports that, it does not replace it. Keep out of reach of children and use for animal supplementation only.

• Arcadia EarthPro Dragon Fuel - a wholefood sprinkle for the fresh-food side of an omnivorous diet, from the same EarthPro range.
• Arcadia EarthPro Omni Gold - a complete insect-and-plant blend that pairs with the same feeding rotation.
• A good-quality UV-B lamp sized correctly for the species and enclosure, since RevitaliseD3 is designed to work alongside UV-B provision rather than in place of it.

As a consumable dietary supplement, RevitaliseD3 is not sold with a manufacturer warranty term; your rights under the Australian Consumer Law apply regardless of anything the manufacturer does or does not separately offer. Standard parcel freight applies.

How often should I use RevitaliseD3?

At feed 8 or 16 in Arcadia's EarthPro rotation if your animal has correct UV-B and heat provision, or every 2nd to 3rd feed if it does not. It is not meant to be used at every single feed.

Can I use it at every feed instead of a plain calcium powder?

No. Arcadia's own feeding programme rotates a D3-bearing powder like RevitaliseD3 with a plain calcium powder used at the feeds in between, to avoid oversupplying vitamin D3 and A over time.

Does this replace UV-B lighting?

No. Correct UV-B lighting is still the primary way a sun-basking reptile should produce its own vitamin D3. RevitaliseD3 is a dietary supplement that works alongside UV-B provision, not a substitute for it.

What species can use RevitaliseD3?

Arcadia states it suits all species of reptile and amphibian as part of a supplement rotation, adjusting frequency for the animal's UV-B access as above.

How is this different from a plain calcium powder?

RevitaliseD3 adds vitamin D3, vitamin A and vitamin E to the calcium, at levels Arcadia has set to mimic a whole small mammal rather than a concentrated powder. A plain calcium powder carries calcium without those added vitamins, which is why the two are rotated rather than either being used alone.

How should I store it?

In a cool, dry place with the tub resealed after each use. Do not refrigerate.
