What do you feed your rats?

[saber2th]

I know that many people use dog food to feed their rats. That should be a choice up on that poll there. I personally do not breed rats yet, but I plan to start in a few months and I plan to feed exclusively dog food.

Now a better name for this thread would have been "what brand of lab block do you feed your rats?"

Not that it makes a difference but I had the same thought that if you wanted to breed rats you had to feed them some type of lab block..however, if you want to know what breeders feed their rats, there is a much wider range than the three brands you listed, you'd have to include hog feed, dog food, lab block, scraps, and I've heard of a few others but those are the ones that come to mind. Just a thought tho, I'm not bashing your thread, because I love threads like this! They are very helpful to the aspiring rat breeder!!!

Yeah, I should of put more thought into it. But I did list "Other", I guess the hog feed, dog food and scraps would fall under that.
Thanks for bringing that to my attention!
