Are mice raised w/ cedar bedding toxic?

I have a friend that feed live mice to her python. Her python quit eating about 3 months ago, so she ended up with about 30 baby mice. Those baby mice are now about a month old.

We are going to freeze the mice next weekend using dry ice.

My question is....... she has been using cedar as a bedding for the past few weeks in the mice enclosures. Will these mice be toxic to my snake since they have been housed in cedar?

I was going to take some of the frozen mice for my corn, and give the rest to a reptile sanctuary in this area.

Thanks.

I don't know if the mice will be toxic for the snake, but the oils in cedar is toxic to the mice. I also know that cedar itself is really bad for ANY small animal, snakes included. I wouldnt trust it myself.
