the rodent smell different, it might make him reject the food entirely. Vitamin powder does NOT dissolve well, so if you do want to inject it, you'll need to buy liquid
vitamins. *I think some have used bird vitamins successfully for snakes too, if you can't find reptile vitamins.


Thank you Thank you Thank you !!!
