Best food for rats!
Rats are omnivorous. They will remain healthy and fit when fed with wholesome food items like whole meal bread, grains (millet, oats, barley, wheat), brown rice, vegetables, along with some good animal protein. Young rats of up to 12 weeks of age must be given high protein puppy food. The adult pet rats can be fed with Mealworms, dog food, and lean meat scraps on daily basis. This food diet can also be combined with a large bowl of ‘rodent mix’ in the form of snacks. This will work out as a healthy food diet.
