So, I bought a 10 pound bag of Harland Teklad lab blocks for my boys.. I've had these lab blocks for a while. Every rat enthusiast online seems to sing praises for Harlan lab blocks, and I myself would also be very impressed with the formula if my rats would actually eat it! They act like they cant stand it. I add in a mix of cheerios, oats, wheat bread, vegetables and fruit along with the lab blocks and before I know it they've knocked their food dish over and left the Harlan blocks behind. When I go to clean out their cage, I usually find that they've stashed the blocks under their towels and fleece. I was thinking of switching to an alternate brand of rat food to use as the main staple of their diet. I'm curious about Mazuri lab blocks, and wanted to know if any dedicated rat owners around here would recommend Mazuri brand rat food as opposed to Harlan Teklad? If anyone could possibly recommend any other good brands without all the additives and bad stuff, I would most definitely appreciate it (and so would my spoiled rats).
Completely unrelated: I only wish the world knew what wonderful pets rats make. My heart melts when I open the cage door and my boys run to my hands and give my fingers/wrists/anywhere on my arm they can reach kisses. <3
