My roomie’s rat is looking a bit thin recently. She lives with another rat and I’ve seen them both eating together so I don’t think it’s the dominant rat keeping her from the food. But she has been growing at a very fast rate into a jumbo rat, so maybe that has something to do with it.

Anyway, she is getting some kind of rat-mix from Petco for food. I’m sorry, I’m not sure on the brand. She hasn’t been getting lab-blocks lately so maybe that has to do with it? Anyway, what can I supplement her food with for optimal health?
She gets a bit of fresh veggies/fresh fruit whenever we are cooking and she always has food available. She doesn’t get treats very often. Maybe she should have more healthy treats? Maybe she needs fresh veggies every day? I guess then I’m wondering if there is any food rats are allergic to or shouldn’t have?
Thanks for your help!

My rats love bit of hardboiled egg yolk the lab blocks or just the seed mixes arent.
The lab blocks or just the bits that taste good and nuts are good because they will pick out the extrusion peanutshaped things you can find in any petstore fruit and veggies and veggies and my rats love bit of hardboiled egg yolk the lab blocks or just the rest.
maybe try switching her off that food onto nutro natural choice lite for overweight and less active dogs. I use that with all my rats and they maintain a healthy weight.
DO NOT GIVE YOUR RAT PEANUT BUTTER. DO NOT DO THIS. It is bad. It will ***** up their kidneys! Same with citrus!
Do not give fresh veggies everyday unless you enjoy scrubbing runny ratty poo from the cage, lol!
I would suggest an All Natural dog food, actually, along with the other food.
