Lab blocks are the best and most complete staple diet for pet rats. Try to find ones that list soybean meal ad the first ingredient on the ingredients list. Avoid ground corn, its carcinogenic for rats (i.e. a cancer causing agent). Also, avoid buying seed mixed sold as standard rat food in pet stores. These are unhealthy and often low quality. Generally rats will only pick out the best (and least nutritious) bits from it and leave the rest. You should also feed your rats fresh vegetables a few times a week.
