Rat Diet: Feeding for reproduction and growth

by Alison Campbell

Whether you are an experienced rat breeder, or wanting to learn how to feed your new rat kittens throughout their different stages of development, this book is here to help. It looks at specific nutritional needs for pre-conception, pregnancy and lactation, as well as rat kittens' needs during the developmental stage, rapid growth phase and the maturation phase. There are discussions about how to avoid under and over-nutrition, how to 'read' a rat's tail to learn how well nourished he is, how to help litter runts to thrive and how to supplement during these life stages. The prickly subject feeding soya is also debated. With links to online stores to help you find the items mentioned in the book, and plenty of references for further reading you'll find all you need to keep your young rats and breeding does in great shape.
