I actually just found out, that the best thing you can feed them, is half hamster food, and half a low fat dog food.. I have been trying that for about a month, and My rat loves the food, and has actually lost his huge gut he had! I was feeding him straight rat food, and he didn't like it at all?? I also give him milk bones once in a while for all the nutrients, HE loves them..I get all my rat supplies from Petco, or Super Pets..I found that the stuff sold at Pet Smart was SH**...Where is the best place to get good rat food?

Regal Rat - Our local pet store sells it by the pound, but you can buy it online if you can't find it at a store near you. It's not corn based like most of the garbage out there.

The best rat food is the kind you can make up yourself, such as Suebee's:

half hamster food and half dog food is the best to feed them i no it sounds wierd but its the best way to feed them
wal-mart has rat blocks - but my rat doesn't like them very much - she MUCH prefers the food with all the seeds and veggies in it
Make home made from oats chereos fruits veggies and other food allot of the food that you buy at stores in bags is usually not good for rats
You can buy them at Petco or Petsmart.
most foods found at pet stores in CRAP! not digestible and really not good for them.


although, kaytee forti-fied rat blocks is what i buy for my girls and its nutritionally adequate for them. i do supplement them with fresh fruits and veggies everyday though.
