Pet Forum / Mammals / Rats / October 2004Feeding Rats
How much and how many times a day do I feed the 3 rats? They seem to be wanting more to eat. I know they have little tummies. I recently gave them 3 blueberry yogurt drops and some popcorns. In the afternoon I give them about 1/4 cup each of their food. The food last until tomorrow morning. For snacks before I go to bed, I give them 3 little squares of cheese nips (crackers). Either way this crackers, oats, cherrios, or cornflakes. -TJ- http://community.webtv.net/TJMS68/Pictureoftherats Hi, With Rats they need a constant supply of Rat Mix available. There are plenty of people here who will tell you the recipes they use. It is pointless telling you what I use as the brand names etc wouldn't mean anything to anyone not living here..LOL. Fresh fruit and veges each day though. Avoid anything fatty, salty, or sugary. The odd treat is OK though. Regards Kate > How much and how many times a day do I feed the 3 rats?

TJ >I do use the rat mix that I either use Fiesta or Reggie brand name. neither of those are really good choices. check out this site for a homemade diet <http://ratsrule.com/diet.html> harlan-teklad lab blocks are probably the best rat food available. you can order them through kim's ark: <http://www.kimsarkrescue.org> my rats eat a mix similar to suebee's plus harlan 2018. plus whatever i'm eating. they always have blocks available. --- petey was a pit bull. http://shattering.org The lab blocks are included in their both bag of foods. The Reggie kind is very expensive one. I'll check out the site you sent me. Thanks. |
