Answer
Hello Melanie,

Ok, the dragon dust is a multivitamin.  I don't think the dragon dust has adequate calcium in it for his needs, so you will need to get some plain calcium to be used several times per week.
How old is he again?  How old is your UVB light?  What type & brand of UVB light are you using, a flourescent tube bulb or a compact/coil light?
The thermometers that are stick ons do not measure the basking temperatures very well, only the ambient temps & humidity.  So you will need to get either a digital probe or a temp gun to more accurately measure the basking temperatures.
Since he is flipping himself over, that is most likely going to be metabolic bone disease.  
I need to know what type & brand of UVB light you are using, please.  Metabolic bone disease is caused by not getting adequate UVB exposure.  He cannot absorb the calcium properly without good UVB lighting.
