I have switched to the extrusion blocks mostly, and they get fresh veggies and fruit morning and evening.
But I am wondering now that I have a cpl of twitch's grown up girls, what should an adult rat eat for fruit and veggies.
I am looking for average mesurements, like a cup each a day or something like this.
they always finsh what we give them especially th evening stuff by morning its all gone...and I have found very little stashed, so they gotta be eating it. The blocks seem to be going slowly too...not as many stashed as I thought would be.
The main veggies are Peas (of course they love these), brocoli, steamed carrots(won't eat raw?) corn, zuccini, cook brussle sprouts, tomatoes, apples, raspberries, straw berries, ripe banana and greens > baby spinach, turnip greens, mustard greens, collard greens.
I guess I am not worried about giving them too much veggies, but maybe I should be...their poos are not mushy or too smelly... I am more worried that its not enough, cause they clean their plate and I cannot get up at 3am and see if they need more...and night time is when they eat the most.
So is there a guide line like the Canada food guide that tells you how many servings and what size an adult rat serving is? I have been looking but have not found anything...yet.
Thanks,
