Don't add the brown rice powder it will make an already heavy sustrate even heavier. Don't add anymore straw it contams easy. You can add some vermiculite to help loosen and aerate the mix. Make sure not to get them too wet, the mix should be fairly light and fluffy......

i agree with mc-man, straw is the way to go.
just pasturize it an hour at 150-160*F before using,
and it's pretty contam resistant,
also fluffs up the dung and helps retain correct moisture content.
