Kent Rodent Feed Questions

[JohnNJ]

I was able to get some of this food and am trying it out. I will post my review in a few days. Friday it will be two weeks since I started.

For anyone that has used Kent rodent feed:

Did you see an increase in eating and drinking over other foods?

Did you see an increase in waste (urine/feces)?

Did the odor become stronger?

Did any of the above eventually stabilize? How long did it take?

Thanks.

Did you see an increase in eating and drinking over other foods?

I used doggy bag dog food before using Kent, my rats eat less of the kent, I use an inline watering system so I can't measure their water intake.

Did you see an increase in waste (urine/feces)?
Did the odor become stronger?

I did not see any increases in waste although the overall odor from my rat room has decreased. I also started using a finer shred bedding so I don't know which the odor change its attributed too.

Did any of the above eventually stabilize? How long did it take?

I noticed a difference in the rats general appearance and activity within a few weeks. I have also noticed a reasonable increase in litter size over the past few months.

Good to hear. I had to buy a lot of bags to get them to ship it to NJ. I'm offering some of the bags on the For Sale forum in case anyone else wants to try it.
