    Think this'll be fine?

    Bit of an odd rat food question - There shouldn't be anything wrong with giving my rats super worms as a snack, right?

    I bought them for one of my herps, but she doesn't have any interest in them, and I don't want them to go to waste if I can avoid it. Superworms are mostly just protein and fat, so as a treat there shouldn't be any harm, I'm thinking, but I feel better getting some extra opinions~

    I wouldn't see a problem with it. I'm guessing wild mice/rodents eat worms, heck they eat just about everything. I just stick with Mazuri mainly, if I want to give my rats treats, I'll go buy a bag of the treats they sell at the pet store.

    No problems at all. They love them. If you breed them, and you have dead beetles or worms, they'll eat those too.
