Can you post the nutritional analysis on the back? Alot of chewable tabs have sugar in them and you don't want to give those. Also, 500mg is a big dose, I personally only give a large dose like that if I am dealing with a chin with dental issues. Better to give the chin a rose hip if you want to supplement Vit C for no specific reason.

If you aren't treating anything a balanced diet is all you need. The more stuff you stick in them, the more problems you will end up with. QUALITY pellet, good hay, water... that's all they need to be healthy in most cases.

If you want to supplement Vit C on a healthy chin I would not give more than 100mg a day, and as a disclaimer there is no scientific evidence that Vit C does anything, its all supposition but since Vit C is excreted when not used and has no documented adverse effects you can use it.
