Mazuri rat food is not what I expected.

There's almost always a demand for really large rats which means retired breeders generally.

I agree, production does drop on the females pretty quickly, but we have to remember the lifespan of a rat is short to begin with.

Replacing breeders every 6 months or so is what I try to keep them at. After that, the litter sizes will go down statistically. A year old is too old, and it's not your food causing the decline.

You would think but in my area I can't give them away for free.

So get a bigger snake!! Lol

Yeah 1 year is definitely time to retire them.

Our rats are producing very well. And we have been using mazuri. I like it a lot. And our rats are very healthy. Our litters are from 10-17. So I think it's doing a good job.

I feed mazuri and my rats are fat and sassy. There is no comparison between my rats and the ones at the pet store which leads me to believe they're breeders must feed dog food or something similar.
