Envigo (Formerly Harlan) Teklad Adult Rat Food Diet Global 2014 (20lbs)

My rats love these lab blocks. They prefer it over Mazuri and Oxbow adult rat food. Rats are scavengers so they can eat an omnivorous diet, but I prefer to feed them whole plant-based ingredients because things like meat and dairy are inflammatory to their little bodies and often give them cancer quickly. There is no telling what the source or purity of meat ingredients will be. I like that these pellets are vegetarian. They would be vegan/ plant-based but they contain D3 in the form of lanolin, which is too bad. Overall high quality, tasty to the ratties, and fits their nutritional needs well! They have beautiful coats and lots of energy even past middle-aged. I supplement the envigo block with fresh veggies and the occasional fruit and nut.

For people complaining about the shipping prices for this food, you can buy direct from The Rat Shop and the price is better.My rats love this food! One of them steals all of it out of his bowl and hides it in his litter box, which is kind of gross but not the food's fault. I've seen this food highly recommended on rat forums, and I feel better now that I know I'm feeing my rats a diet that is actually appropriate for them, rather than food from pet stores, which often does not have the appropriate nutrients and often contains food that aren't very good for rats. I mix this with Oxbow Regal Rat Food to provide them variety. This food is maybe more expensive some some, but they eat all of it unlike some rat food mixes.I bought a 2lb bag and it's lasted me over 2 months with 2 rats (mixing it with other foods).

My girls don't like block food as much as kibble shapes, but this is tied with Mazuri for their favorite block.The nutrition is great, and the feed analysis sheet they provide is nothing short of beautiful (to my nerdy eyes)

One of the best rat foods on the market, right alongside the adult Oxbow rat food. I use both of these to create a blend and my rats love them. I ordered the largest size I could and it lasts a long time, so it's definitely worth it.

The ricing for the product was excellent, but the product suprisingly got mold on it very quickly. I have never had this happen before, so don't know what happened, but when I opened the boxes, the product had mold both outside and inside the bags of rodent food. Maybe they were either not stored in a dry enough place, or somehow the product got damp/wet in transit,, but I have never had mold on/in the rodent food I use. Hoping this is a one time incedent!

Very good diet for rats my rats prefer this to other brands like Mazuri.

This rat food is AMAZING. You can buy this in bulk for a GREAT price and it lasts you a really long time. Shipping is also incredibly quick and it comes in a simple durable ziplock package that you can use as the container itself or just pour into your own. I became very loyal to this brand the first time I ordered it. I wish I could give it more stars!!

Great product. The pieces of food are large and the rats like them. AWFUL packaging. Bag of food is made out of soft paper and arrived ripped with food spilling out.
