    Is it beneficial to use vitamins on their feeding mice?

    It's always beneficial to feed healthy mice/rats to your animals. Now, if you're talking about adding some sort of powder/liquid vitamin to the feeder before giving it to them, then no - completely unnecessary.

    Thanks. I don't want my Bumblebee to turn brown. Not the reason for vitamins. But comes to mind.

    Actually there is that snakebytes video where brian did an experiment (on corns) where adding vitamins DID make the snakes grow a lot faster. Never tried it though.

    Here, found the video. Hey, I might just try this on a couple snakes myself.

    Ummmmm sorry but your bumblebee will turn brown. Pastels brown with age/size. Some not as quick but they all do eventually.

    You can use stuff like Reptaid injected in the dead feeder every few months as a supplement. I use that stuff but as far as stuff like calcium powder or Herptivite Multivitamin, I only use that stuff for my bearded dragon.

    Snake vitamins are a hoax. Snakes get all necessary nutrients from whole animal diet.

    Here is a full grown pastel not brown just tanned over a little. Now why in the hell would you talk so confidently about something that's not true? that was your only point! and you were cocky! Terrible! Don't do that to yourself.
