Dried corn can sometime have fungus in it that can cause illness. I see that this has flaked corn in it. How has this corn been processed?

Answer by ChewyApr 15, 2021
The corn in this feed mix (pellets) has been heat processed through extrusion. This offers several advantages over unprocessed corn. High temperature extrusions minimizes loss of vitamins and amino acids that is added to the pelleted diets. These pellets are mixed in with the additional ingredients and is blended into other feeds in the final formulation. An added benefit of a heat processed corn and pellets is that it reduces toxins and microorganism that could pose a potential risk to your pet. All the components in this food, provide a safe and notorious foraging food for your pet.

Will mice pick out there favorite (junky) pieces and leave the rest?

Answer by ChewyMay 21, 2019
Some pet mice might develop "selective eating behavior". That's why you should limit certain foods, like nuts and treats.

Can young rats eat this as well

Answer by ChewyJan 11, 2022
Vitakraft recommends always having 1 or 2 Sunseed Critter Cubes available in the cage with young rats. You can also begin feeding this food once they are weaned. Rats will start nibbling just before this time and the blocks will aid with their teeth development.

My little Bear is a picky eater and so I buy several different types and brands of rat food and mix them in a glass container from which he gets his daily ration. I noticed that he really likes this food. The variety in the blend is great and I have less waste. I definitely recommend this to my fellow rat parents.

I am rehabbing a squirrel and wanted some variety of healthy snacks/ food for him. I give this to him in addition to his fruits vegetables and nuts. He should be extremely healthy once spring comes and he is able to be on his own.

This food was recommended by a gerbil association, but I am leery of most/all bagged foods. I was incorrect. It's very good and the gerbils love it.

I have to say that this food has a lot in it that the hamsters and rat don't want to eat. The pieces they like they eat well, but the rest I wind up giving to the birds and squirrels outside. (Not a bad deal for them, and I enjoy doing it, so it doesn't get wasted).
