    Re: What do you feed your mice

    My rats and mice all eat the same thing, i get dog food but they also get some puffed rice/wheat cerial, and leftovers, and anything anyone gives me to eat that I think is gross.
    (all I get comes from Walmart, the only store in town that has animal suplies-aside from the more expensive ranch suply store)

    I can't find f6 for the life of my in my area currently feeding Mazuri Rat and Mouse diet, but I noticed this contains more crude protein (about 23%) is that bad?

    I don't breed mice, but do rats. I feed the rats Purinas Lab Diet 5001.

    I buy a rat or two at a time to feed my BP. I don't have them long enough to feed them anything special. Whatever's around.

    Harlan 2018 .. I get bigger litters and bigger babies(kittens) compared to the waxy looking rat pellets with high fat.

    Re: What do you feed your mice

    Lately I've been feeding a mix of lab block (Harlan) and Dog food. I keep meaning to give them table scraps too but I keep forgetting.

    Re: What do you feed your mice

    I feed my rodents a 50/50 diet. 50% of their diet is made up of fresh fruits, veggies, grains, cooked egg, and cooked meats. The other half is made up of Mazuri brand lab blocks.
