I use Mazuri 6F, 9F is higher in calcium I believe. It will work fine.

2. I misplaced the link to the site with the list of accpetable and unacceptable foods. It was a site that has the list in a table. Can someone give me the URL to that site or to a site that has a list of 'yummies' and 'yuckies'.
Rat guide should have an article on that somewhere. Generally stay away from high content fat foods. Peanuts should be sparingly treated, and no citrus!
3. Finally, I currently have a 1.2 trio and will be retiring my 2 females. So I plan on getting 4 new stock females. My question is, I'll be using the setup that Joanna uses and need to know how to start? Do I put all 4 females in with my male at once to begin or what?
Do you want 4 litters at once? It depends on what rotation you want. Can you handle 4 seperate bins for 4 different litters? I know there is an excellent sticky in this section on breeding rotations and costs. LordJackel posted it, check it out!
