If snakes are fed a consistant good diet
(ie, mice,rats for our boas) there is no need
for a vitamin suppliment or those vita-sprays
or whatever. They are just clever marketing
tools that get people to spend money on
something they don't need. So long as your
mice/rats aren't freezer burned/cooked (less
nutrition) then there is no need for any
supplements. In the wild these snakes do not
get supplements or go "lick rocks or eat
plants for nutriants" like other animals do...
It is much more important for the rats and
mice they eat to be getting a balanced diet,
the snakes gets everything it needs from
the rodents.
Just trying to save you some money...
I can look for sources of info about this if
someone really wants, but it really is
unneeded. Don't feel bad, it's just clever
marketing... same as those "reptile basking
lights"... marketing, marketing, marketing.
FYI!
