    Just wondering if I can feed my rats the same fruit/veggie diet I give my rabbits? The bunnies get celery, romaine lettuce, and carrots three or four times a week along with timothy hay and rabbit pellets (daily) and sometimes for a little treat they'll each get a grape or a couple of craisins...

    Okay, so this thread is for people to post what they add to their rats diet to keep them happy and healthy. I know we all try hard, but sometimes, even me, get stuck for ideas as to what to add into their diet to make it more interesting, yet still balanced and healthy. Also, have you made any...

    How long do rats usually live? I've read so many different things, I don't know which to believe.. So, I thought I'd ask all of you since you all seem to know what you're talking about. Thanks!
