If I was paying $30 for a 50lb bag of Mazuri like some people have to, I would be mixing in DB to cut the cost. Some have had really good results with it.

YMMV
Thats where mixing in Whole oats and Grains from Feed stores comes into play. Id never use dog food ever for something my snakes will eat. Healthy growth in snakes starts with the food your rats eat.

And rodents go after the dog food cause its junk. ITs liek a treat to them and the will eat it all the time. And will eat a lot of it as its not healthy for them.
