Mice are on the move constantly, climbing, digging and collecting. Their food consists mainly of seeds and cereals of every kind, rounded off with small amounts of fresh greens. The mixes suit mice and rats alike and are available loose and as pellets. Because the teeth keep growing throughout life, gnawing material always belongs in the enclosure.
Feeding in everyday life
Spread several small portions around the cage rather than putting everything in one bowl. That matches their natural searching behaviour and keeps your animals busy for longer. Mice are active at dusk and during the night, so the main meal fits well into the early evening, when they start to get going. A quiet spot without draughts helps them sleep during the day. Collecting food in hiding places is completely normal and part of how mice live. Take out any perishable remains and leave the dry grains where they are.
Mix, pellets and extras
A loose mix offers different structures and shapes and makes eating varied and interesting. Pellets are evenly composed, so not only single components get eaten. Small amounts of vegetables or herbs round the ration off, and it is best to introduce them slowly and one kind at a time. Fresh water has to be available at all times, ideally from a drinking bottle. Store the food dry, cool and tightly closed so the seeds keep their aroma. A snuffle mat or a puzzle toy turns a handful of grains into a task that keeps your mice busy for quite a while and suits their urge to search.
Frequently asked questions
Can mice and rats eat the same food?
Yes, these mixes are meant for both species. The differences lie mainly in the portion size per animal.
How much food does a mouse need?
Only small amounts, but regularly. Watch how much really gets eaten and adjust the ration accordingly.
Why does my mouse hide food?
Building up depots is part of normal behaviour. Only remove perishable remains, dry grains can stay where they are.
Small rations, spread out instead of one full bowl
Mice are constantly on the move and really like to search for their food. Feeding therefore works particularly well when you spread several small portions around the enclosure. The basis is a mix of seeds and cereals that is meant for rats as well. As pellets, every piece has the same composition so not only the favourite grains get eaten. Small amounts of vegetables or herbs bring variety and are introduced slowly. Because the teeth keep growing throughout life, gnawing material belongs with it. Give the main meal in the early evening, when your animals wake up. A snuffle mat turns a handful of grains into a task that lasts a good deal longer. Fresh water from a drinking bottle has to be available at all times, day and night.
