I'd say collect cooked chicken bones and feed them to the moms they need it! mine also get holistic dog food w/o corn,dog cookies, they have a very varied diet.
Then why would Debbie “The Rat Lady” Ducommun propagate the use of her molasses mix, when the main ingredient is Soy?
Why do most feed companies feed soy and use it as a main ingredient? Why do people love soy products? Are we not privy to some huge soy cover up?
Frankly, you have no proof of your accusation against the use of soy in rat foods.

Soy and corn cause cancer? Do you have some links to proof to back that up?
Most of the girls have taken right to the bits of scrambled egg, and I mixed up some small almond butter balls for them too using organic almond butter, a bit of honey and just enough flour to get it to form balls without being sticky.

NEVER FEED ORANGES! Especially to males. It causes kidney failure because of the d-Limonene in the peel and inner skin. The flesh ONLY is fairly safe to feed females, but why take the chance..
I've fed soy formula and Mazuri 9F to my rats for years. I've had male rats who live to be over 4 years old and were in great health. Neither my males or females get mammary tumors. It's been a good year since one of my rats has had a tumor.
