im not trying to start a debate on if you should or should not use dog food. i am just going to say that in my case i feed exclusively doggy bag dog food. i have never had a rat with a cyst ever, never had any sickness except when i had a flood, smell isnt the greatest but i cant say its any differant form when i used sunseed critter cubes.
i just had a female drop a litter of 24 babies. my average for a litter is 12-15. young females 8-10. i have had a few females drop still borns, but i breed non stop and my females dont get breaks. i retire females at 12-15 months old.
