Re: Question on Fish and vitamin replacement
Quote:
If the fish you give are of high quality, they normally also contain enough vitamins, calcium, ... as the snake's should need. Fish that contain thiaminase should always be powdered with vitamin B1. I powder occasionally with a complete multivitamin powder, but certainly not all the time. If the snake is pregnant or a little one I powder more with calcium. |

Re: Question on Fish and vitamin replacement
Thanks for all the advice. I didn't realize that "thaimine" was Vitamin B1. When I was reading the ingredient label on the product I bought, I was looking for the actual words "Vitamin B1". Thaimine is listed on the ingredient label so it should be fine.
Not even sure if I will need it now anyway but it is still good to have on hand. We are going to try feeding Kurly his first pinky tomorrow so wish us luck! |
