    Best large sized rodent block?

    Does anyone know any good high quality rat food that is large in size so it doesn't fall through metal feeding lids?
    Something that comes in big nuggets rather than pellets?

    Thank you, I should have mentioned though I'm looking for bulk. At least 25-50 pound bags of high quality rodent food that comes in nuggets instead of pellets.

    Check the Mazuri site for a Purina dealer near you. These 50lb bags are about $25 each.

    I received mines yesterday, it's identical to the Mazuri 6F (5M30). $27 shipped for a 40lb bag.

    I use blocks from a company called ADM. They are out of Illinois, close to St Louis somewhere...
    Anyway, my distributor brings it to me in 50# bags, under $20 a bag if you buy in bulk.

    The pellets are twice the size of Mazuri, and have the same nutritional values...
