Selective Rat & Mouse is a complete food for rats and mice. The recipe is vegetarian: the protein comes from soya rather than animal sources. All ingredients are pressed into one nugget, so your pets cannot pick out only their favourite bits.
The base consists of wheat, soya meal, barley and oats, with 2.5% apple and 2.5% blackcurrant. The food is low in saturated fatty acids and rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids. No sugars or colourings are added. That is good for rats, as they easily become overweight.
According to the packaging, an adult rat eats around 20 to 25 grams per day on average. Mice eat far less; follow the feeding guide on the bag for them. Occasionally offer a small amount of fresh vegetables and now and then some extra protein, such as a piece of boiled egg or an insect. Fresh drinking water must always be available.
Rats and mice are clever animals that love to search for their food. Scatter some of the nuggets through the bedding or hide them in a cardboard tube. That way every meal also becomes enrichment. When switching from another food, do so gradually over one to two weeks.
According to the product information, an adult rat needs about 20 to 25 grams per day on average. Keep an eye on your rats' weight and adjust if needed.
