Why? Are you feeding them BONELESS rats? Rodents are a WHOLE food item. They don't need suppliments.

get another bucket......crickets carry alot of stuff that will hurt your snakes....

alright.......snake food ....defrost in bucket or whatever....

crickets.....use plastic any container....

as for dusting mice with calcium powder...yes.you can....not needed alot...but from time to time dusting helps....

Just the other day I was in Africa...you would not believe how many gerbils I saw running around covered in calcium powder.

Go on, guess how many I saw covered in calcium powder....

How many did you find in a plastic box, feeding on non-native prey items?

Take the smart out of SmartA$s, thats what you are being.
