Multivitamin Question

I am trying to figure out which multivitamin to use for an adult beardie.

I plan to use calcium without d3, since I have a t5 bulb, but it seems like it's a good idea to still get some d3 in the supplements, so I thought I'd use a multivitamin with d3. I was planning to do 3 days a week calcium without d3 and 1 day a week multivitamin with d3. However, Reptivite with d3 contains vitamin A, which I have seen some say is not good. Herptivite does not have vitamin A, but also does not have d3, so it would mean I'd have to get 3 supplements instead of 2 if I want to provide d3...

Is Reptivite bad to give once a week because of the vitamin.A? Is there a multivitamin that I haven't found that does not have vitamin A but does have d3?

It's best to skip anything with pure vitamin A altogether, especially if the beardie is already getting pure vitamin A from something else in the diet. A calcium with D3, normal calcium, and a separate multivitamin is the safest combination.

Rep-cal is a phosphorus-free powder that is just pure calcium and vitamin D, and it's easy to find in stores and on Amazon.
