Anyone, no one?

I suggest not using any of it as too much will casue problems in production. Dog foods are designed for dogs, as rats will survive off it but will not look taht healthy, as they end up with oily fur and at times lose fur form the amounts of protein and meat in dog food.

I suggest getting mazuri or kent. Kent is cheaper than most dog foods at 13$ for 50lbs

Thanks, I just know a few people who use dog food so I was just curious. Do I put the food in a dish or something and the rats will go in and eat it? And can I find Mazuri or Kent at Petsmart? I have to go there tomorrow to get a couple bags of aspen bedding and crickets so I'm going to check out the food.

You wont find 50lbs bags at pet stores, you need to go to feed strores. And you will want to make a food hopper so they cant just grab the food and hide it. They waste way too much foot when left in a bowl.

Petco does have i think 2 lbs bag of Mazuri but its 9.99 compared to 23$ for 50lbs
