Buying pre-made dry mix
Despite what many pet shops tell you, the rat food mix available at pet stores or the supermarket is not sufficient for rats in fact often these mixes contain ingredients that are harmful to rats. Although rats can survive on these dry mixes they are often sick, underweight and do not live as long as healthy rats even when supplemented with fresh fruit and veggies.
Buying a pre-made mix or making your own with the recipe found here are much healthier options for your rats. Rats will often leave over half of the ingredients in the pet store bought mix as they are either too small or taste bad (often bird seeds). This is why the pre-made dry mix works out to be a lot cheaper - Rats will generally love and finish off every ingredient in the mix without wasting any which means a 1kg pre-made dry mix bag lasts a lot longer than a 1kg pet shop mix.
Although we do have the recipe supplied on this website we also understand that it can be hard to find the time to make up your own mix. This is why we have made the decision to sell pre-made bags of our quality dry mix.
500g bag = $9
1kg bag = $17
+ Postage (or pick up)
Note - If you are buying this when you pick up your rat please inform me prior to the day so that I can make it up fresh for you and have it ready.
