Best Store Bought Rat food?

Question

I am currently on Nutriphase for my babies (My Rats), the regular not the gold, and was wondering if there were any better rat foods out there? Is gold better than the kind I use? Is Nutriphase the best? Should I switch? (Unfortunately I can only use store-bought, so please only store bought.

I saw good reviews on them and just wanted to know from fellow rat owners..

Answer 1

do lab blocks count? They're internet bought, and the best for them!

but out of those two, i'd say the kind you're currently using, it has less alfalfa, which is indigestible and just a filler.  

Answer 2

Mazuri, they are nothing but blocks. They are the best thing you can buy from petsmart.

Answer 3

Reggie Rat is a great type of rat food.

Remember to still give them thier vegetables, etc. as well!
