My rats love the Oxbow Garden Select. I've used it for many years for the many rats I've had, and every single one of them have loved it!

My rats like the other oxbow food way better, they hardly touch this one. Not impressed.

I use this in combination with Oxbow Essentials. My rats prefer Essentials but will eat these big round pellets after they finish their other kibble. I like that these are a little larger in size. I hide them in their bedding for foraging and enrichment. The bag is ziplock so the food stays safe and fresh. I really like the smell of this food too : )

I’ve heard the Oxbow is the best rat food on the market so I’ve always fed my girls this kind. They eat it up, their poops are normal and they have nice coats. No complaints here!

There was nothing wrong with the product, but none of my 4 rats were interested in it at all and I ended up tossing it. Just FYI.

I've purchased a lot of products from Chewy before, but this is the first time I purchased Oxbow Garden Select Rat Food from them. Price was much better than any other vendor and no shipping costs if you reach a minimum. I originally purchased a small bag of these "rat blocks" at my local pet store to supplement my gerbils' diet and was pleased that they seemed to like them. But with that in mind, I won't be buying from the local pet store again. Small bags at a high price? Not for me. I appreciate that Chewy offers so many different pet foods and feel as if I wasn't forced into a limited number of choices at my local pet store -- and I get a much better price. Thanks Chewy!

I loved that this product was non-GMO, as I’ve read studies about how they can cause tumor growth. However, my rats won’t eat it. I have to go back to my old food. I’m disappointed and was really hoping they would like this.

My rats loved this food the moment I switched them to it! This was recommended by their vet and told me that if they get sick while on this food, the company will cover their vet care after running a stool test! Worth the money for that!

I've done a lot of researching the best rat food, and this stuff has the best ingredients. My rats were on Mazuri when I got them and it has a lot of corn and alfalfa meal, which is not the best for them! It's hard to find rat pellets without these ingredients. Also, the Mazuri food was very crumbly and Oxbow doesn't leave a big mess.

Our two male rats will not touch these, other than to throw them around and make a big mess. The quality is good, so I'll go with 3 stars. Luckily, we have plenty of chickens, goats and potbelly pigs who think they're the bomb, so they haven't completely gone to waste...
