Just thought I'd share my rat (or other rodent) treat recipe with you.
It's pretty much abstract, but it works and they LOVE it, raw or baked.
(approximately
1 cup of rolled oats
1 tablespoon of sugar
2/3 cup of flour
1/2 of nuts, cheerios, sunflower seeds (no shell), dry corn, barley, etc
1/4 cup of shredded apple or carrot
1/4 cup of honey (maybe peanut putter?)
Then ad water until it gets a doughy consistency. Then just drop spoonfulls onto a baking sheet and bake at 300F or 350F until they are dark brown. You can also give the rats globs of it (on a jar lid or something). They like it pretty well.
By the way it tastes pretty good. I ate a few tonight
