    Ok, my friend Jessi told me that she used this spray on Vitamin stuff for her BPs. It's by Fluker's, and it says "liquid vitamin for all reptiles, electrolyte spray formula." you're supposed to spray it on the mouse and let it dry, then feed it to the snake. has anyone ever heard of this stuff before? Jessi says it works great and keeps her bps healthy. i have some, but i dont know if i'm gona try it until i check with you guys

    vitamin spray

    i've heard stuff like that mentioned on here before and i think that most people say that it's really not necessary. bps get all of the nutrition they need from the prey itself so i don't think you really need to supplement with anything. it may just be a waste of money for you to use that stuff.

    Yep, the best way to make sure your snake is getting what it needs is to buy or raise food that's been fed a wholesome diet. Other than that and water, they really don't need anything.

    Re: vitamin spray

    Rats and mice bought from pet stores are often kept on a crappy diet. So I'd recommend using the spray, especially since you already purchased it.

    I'd eventually like to raise my own rats and keep them on an all organic diet so that my snakes are in turn kept on an organic diet. The crap they put in mouse/rat food is so horrible.. and to feed it to your snakes is even worse.

    BP get all the nutrients they need from their diet there is no need for supplements.

    Just another product that is a waste of money.
