Alright. So Flux is HUGE. When they weighed Goliath at his exam to fix his leg up, he was 430grams. That puts Flux who is HUGE compared to him closer to 6 or 700 grams (Not kidding). He's HUGE and he eats like a horse.
Here's problem.
They only occasionally get yogies and cheerios (put those on their kabobs and it gives them something to do for an hour or three) and veggies. Green pepper, carrots, banana for Goliath so he gains s'more weight. Green beans, cucumber. Not anything overly unhealthy.
But Flux is still HUGE and getting bigger. He's going to turn into a very obese rat if I don't change things, I just don't know WHAT to change.
They are both on Oxbox Adult Rat food. Currently switching between green peppers and cucumbers for veggies(they are on sale at work ) and should be picking up some new stuff during grocery shopping today.
What can I do to make him STOP getting fatter? He eats his food faster than Goliath and his food is usually empty almost a full day before Goliath's is. He's my chunky little snowball.
