What you should not feed rats?

Answer 1

• Citrus fruits (cause the runs)
• Peanuts (They are fattier than other nuts and may provoke a skin reaction in susceptible mice, although a few peanuts in the mouse's food mix may be ok. I would give them complete with shell, which the mice will also eat.)
• Chocolate (can be toxic to rodents in large amounts)
• Unwashed fruit/vegetables (These may contain pesticides. A simple rule is not to feed your mice anything that you wouldn't eat yourself.)
• Wheat (can cause skin problems in susceptible mice)
• Cheese (despite the stereotype of mice, cheese is not good for them and many don't like it!)
• Milk (Only offer milk products (kitten milk replacement formula) if there is a medical reason or the mice are being hand-reared. Milk is unnecessary and can cause health problems in both the short and long term.)
• Lettuce (causes diarrhoea) *Too many watery vegetables, such as lettuce, can cause runny stools.
• White millet (this is too fatty, use yellow millet instead which is sold for birds)
• Maize
• Fizzy drinks (can be fatal)

Answer 2

Mice are very frightened and nervous animals, in any case. Domestic mice can be fed, only if they are tame or have been raised around humans. I have a pregnant mouse at home, I can feed her usually, if she's calm and is very hungry, but even then she can get scared run away.

Answer 5

CORN! Mice are sensitive to corn and can form Allergies to it. Also just follow common sense no junk food(chocolate, chips, etc.)
