My Homemade Mix
As they say, a variety is best! My mix has a huge of variety of healthy, organic ingredients your rats will love!
My mix contains mostly grains, which should be the biggest part of their diet. Second most are dried fruits, followed by seeds, legumes then nuts. I use very few oats in my diet and never any corn. Instead use a large variety of healthier grains. None of the dried fruits have sugar added. All nuts and seeds are raw and unsalted. There are never peanuts in the mix.
Below I have listed the ingredients. I put them in order from what it has most of at top and least at the bottom. It may not be 100% accurate but close. I also list the different types of that ingredient that go into the mix. The mix will usually contain at least one type of each ingredient or more. However, due to the store not changing what they have in stock, the mix may change from time to time. Some things there are less of. Not every small order will have a fig or maybe a walnut for example.

I can customize your order for you. Let's say you want to purchase for mice. I can add extra millet and smaller items that mice will prefer. Or you want to make sure there is plenty of your rat's favorite item, I can do that too. If you request a pricey item, I may charge extra. I can also take out an item.
