what type of mulch? I would use either aspen, cypress or eco earth.
But especially feeding live, he won't ingest that much substrate, a little is not worry some, their digestive system breaks down bone, a lil substrate isn't gonna hurt.
Their bodies are made for this type of thing.... I'm pretty sure the ingest some dirt and whatever else is layin on the ground in Africa
