There was some discussion in another thread about how to feed rodents; hopper, top of screen, dump it on the bedding.

Anyone ever come up with an average number of pieces of lab block to give rats, mice or ASFs? Either a piece count or an average weight per rodent.

I was guessing at two pieces of lab block per day for a mouse or ASF and six per day for an adult rat.

I'm just looking for a general guideline because I know the mice and ASFs are wasting food. The rats seem to be eating it all but a few tubs eat alot every day and are looking chunky. I have two males that are over 700 grams each.

Any ideas?
