Oxbow Essentials Mouse Food/Young Rat Food - 2.5 lb.

This is a nutritionally complete lab block appropriate for rats up to six months old. This food should be 80% of your rats’ diet. I prefer Oxbow because it doesn’t leave behind a big mess. I tried another brand and had tons of crumbs all over the cage floor.(I am an Amazon Affiliate and have the potential to earn commissions on sales of this product if accessed through my affiliate link.)

Great quality juvenile rat food. Just wish it came in a larger size bag! Other than that, very pleased!

Little Princess Tika has been thriving on these. She's active and a good weight. They aren't the only food she gets, but she makes them her main staple.Not too big. Not too small. Clearly very good for her, and totally worth it.

Not that rats are picky. But I've always trusted oxbow for our rat, rabbit and guinea pig foods.

This is supposed to be ye best rat food available. While some of my babies are picky with this, they're all fat and healthy. They all LOVE the adult version, but they can't get that until they're 6 months old because rats under 6mo need more protein.
