I use reptibark as a subtrate and live feed i usually feed in a different tank but im thinking about changing that and feeding in the tanks but what are the chances of eating the reptibark

Feeding live is dangerous, feeding live in a tank with hides/substrate etc that the preycan hide in is more dangerous, how are you going to supervise the feeding and intervene if the prey attacks the snake behind the enclosures "furniture"?

Just put the dead prey on a plate/dish inside the tank and he won't eat the substrate.
