I am really glad that you push for people to do their own research and not just copy you or anyone else item for item. 😁👍❤️ Keep up the good work, Emi!

Ooh! I don’t have rats, but so many of the comments were asking for this! Who here doesn’t have rats, mice, cats, leopard geckos, invertebrates, etc, but still loves her channel!

Crumble the rat hoover taking care of those spilt cornflakes like a pro 😅

That looks so nutritious for rats! The amount of rodent foods out there that are just not suitable is just sad, animals deserve to be healthy too! Your food looks great, I'm sure they love it!

I’ve been trying to learn how to make my own mix and was getting confused, but this video helped a lot!

Thankyou so much for this video I've been needing to change what's in my rats diet and I needed some inspiration!! Love your videos!!!😁😁😁

It’s so cute how Crumble keeps running around and getting in the food😂

Do I have a rat? no Am I still watching this? yes Btw I love your channel, you’re such a positive person!🥰

Crumble has such chaotic energy and I love him for it

Im currently 16 almost 17 and I'm waiting for the day I can have my own rats! I've loved them for a long time and your videos are really helping me have an idea of where to start with research

Oh my god I really didn't realize how easy it was! Thanks for breaking down the percentages and giving other examples of things to throw in! I am so excited to do this and I have so much more knowledge on a balanced diet

just so y'all remember if you choose to make your mix for your rats and mice, every mouse and rat has different needs and you'll have to make adjustments to every mix to fit your animals and you usually can't follow every recipe perfectly ☺️ sometimes you'll even have to come up with your own recipes for mixes as none work well! It took me months to find a mix of foods that works best for my mice!

I’ve been looking for a good video on how to make a rat mix, and this one is perfect! You are my favorite channel to go to for help with my rats, and I love your videos!

I'm in Canada and I currently mix Reggie Rat and Oxbow Essentials Adult rat food together to make my base mix, but we really are hurting for a good rat muesli here in North America as far as I am aware. Because Reggie Rat is high in wheat, I do not add wheat to any other part of their mix (gluten free pasta made from rice; corn, rice, and oat cereals for the processed grains). But I still wish we could get Harrison's banana brunch here, or at least something comparable. Thanks very much for the video, though! I think in North America it is pushed that we have to feed our rats a block diet because otherwise they will just pick out their favourites, but my rats LOVE their mix. They eat every piece of it. You just can't keep their bowls full 100% of the time. And honestly, some rats will get fat even on blocks if they are free-fed. There are so many benefits to feeding a diverse mix rather than just a block, in my opinion, and more people should know about the option.

I'm not too sure if it's been noted already, but the Harrison's rabbit banana brunch mix is on the ratnations website

This isnt very relevant but I find rat boggling SO ADORABLE :33

i’ve been doing so much research and i still don’t know what to feed my rats, i’m getting them for christmas. just as i was about to watch another 50 vids, you post this. thank You!!

Could you maybe sometime in the future do a mouse diet basics video like how you did for the rats? Also, great video, it's quite helpful even though I don't have rats but if I did this would be great. For me, I just watch all your videos even though I don't have rats or mice, but thinking about adopting some mice in the future! Overall an entertaining video. 😁💖

"Tee hee hee...Mum's dropped some!"

this is soooo wholesome and helpful dude, i love your channel

I LOVE your vids! And I love how crumble is just running around while you are making their mix!

Thank you for making this video! You and Jemma both make great videos and I've watched both you videos (and hers) over and over leading up to me getting my boys. You both are so helpful when it comes to explaining rat care :-)

this was so helpful!! i have been trying to find good rat food that has good variety!! im definitely going to look into other references and people to to really understand that diet but this is a great starting point and really broke it down for me! thank you so much Emi❤️❤️you are a queen

Aw, I've been looking for something like this for a long time :) thanks for the video Emi!

Hey! So I was severely confused on how to make my own mix, and you have helped so much by making this video. I now have a good idea of what to do and have written down a variety of potential foods for each category. I am planning on getting rats soon and you have been so helpful. Thank you 💕😊🐀🐀

I love watching you rat care videos and my dad said I might get rats I’m so excited I’ve been doing to much research and you my favorite KZfaq for rats! 😋✨

Awesome! This seems so much easier then having a whole bunch of seperate ingredients, which is what I had currently set up. I will use the guide you posted! Thank you

Thankyou so much, Ive had my rats about a month and just been feeling so overwhelmed with all the diet info, i knew i wanted to move away from nuggets with fresh food asap but I have learning difficulties and struggled to understand a lot of the resources out there!! I’ve ordered Isamix from ratrations but I’d love start making my own at some point. You explained this process really clearly and visually 💕

*while pointing at like 10 products* “Very simple basic rat food”

thank you for making this! i got rats (sisters, their names are pepper and fern) a couple months ago and your channel has been incredibly helpful when i have a question. i currently feed them the oxbow adult rat food, but because of your videos i'm going to branch out (doing some research too!) and hopefully give them the variety they need.

We make extremely similar rat food mixes! I'm really happy about that, makes me feel like I'm doing it right! I actually use the exact same brand (Naturals) for the "vegetable" portion of my rat's diet. They absolutely love that stuff. I really want to get one of those large tubs you have because my boys go through the food pretty fast.

The rats are so cute !! I love how you make your own rat food and take time your time for them.

I love your animals way too much!!! Your honestly the reason I'm going on to study zoology in September :)

Ever since you first talked about making your own food I was gonna try but felt very overwhelmed! Thanks for breaking it down. Now I have a better idea of what to look for and feel way less stressed! Lol

I got my babies about 4 months ago and they have made me so happy. Your channel give me the info to give them their best life so thank you.❤❤❤

This was so helpful, im planning on getting rats at the end of next month and i had no idea what to do this video really helped me out thank you🙏

I use wilko pea feast rabbit food as a base mix and like to switch the lentils and cereal often✨💕

This is the video I’ve been waiting for !! Thank you so much for posting this it’s reallyyyyyyy helpful, I’ve been trying to find proper food for them and I watched the other video and looked up the “shunamite” (??) diet but it’s still been a struggle trying to find some of the things where I’m from

Oh my gosh!! This is the video I've been looking for for so long, I tried to make a mix by following other sources, but I didn't turn out very well at all and I just ended up swiching back to oxbow. Thanks thanks thanks for making this!

Love your channel Emi!! You have such a great channel!!!!

Yay thank you Emi, this was very helpful I'll definitely be trying this!🙂😀

EMI I literally love you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HAVE BEEN NEEDING A NEW MIX FOR MY RATTIES..SO THANKS SO MUCH :)💖

Early! I can’t wait, I’ve been loving the videos with Hubble lately as well!

Perfect timing! I’m getting rats soon and I couldn’t find many videos on good food to use :)

Grazie!! Cercavo proprio un video così in questi giorni, arrivi sempre al momento giusto 😍

Thank you so much! I think I am gonna try this method! I’m getting rats for Christmas! I’m a huge fan! Have a great day!

I finally found this video thank you so much this helped tons.😃

The best rat youtuber! You help me give my future rats the right care, I appreciate you very much!

This was very helpful! When I was younger and had rats I didn’t do the best so when I get my next boys I want to give them the best 😊 I’m looking for what’s best to put in the mix for what I can access

Thanku for this video! Didn't know dandelion leafs and stuff like that could be added so definitely doing that

Tysm, I’m getting my rats in a few weeks and You have really helped me on some ingredients. Btw love ur channel and your rats

Love it keep up the good work and have a good day

Thank you soo much for this video, this was very educational! And I’m getting rats soon so I was very happy to see this

This was SO SO SO So helpfull you don 't even know, I'm asking for rats for my birthday next year. This was just so helpful thanks!

This video is super informative! I’ve been looking to make my own mouse food. I’ll definitely be doing some research and this video is helpful not to copy, but to see how much work and the general idea of how much it costs. Thanks!

Loving the cream egg cup! 😂 Hope you and your pets are well and your keeping safe ❤ I use the herbs plus instead of nature's salad. I've also just ordered some of them seeds as it's cheaper.

I'm so pleased you made this video. As I am big dumdum, I found the Isamu video a little difficult to get my head around. She's great and knows her stuff, but having someone who's clearly a lot more comfortable being in front (or in this case, behind) a camera made it a lot easier to follow. You helped simplify a few of the things I learned from watching her video and I'm sure I'm not the only one in this boat.

I'm getting rats very soon and your channel has given me the best information! Hopefully my boys will be happy after following your advice and cramming their cage full of toys and climbeys

I couldn't find the banana brunch here in the states but I did contact the person on your link and they responded and are going to get together a rate for me to ship some to me. Thank you for sharing this. I have a feeder rat and he's spoiled.

this was SO helpful thank you so much !!

Omg i love your rats and I’m hoping to get one❤️ this video was really helpful. Every time I watch your videos my cat comes running because he hears it and he just watches with me😊🥰 he also really loves Hubble❤️🥰

Thank you so much for inspiring me to get rats, they have opened up my world to so much. I will be forever grateful to you for inspiring so many minds with your videos. I will also e getting mice for Christmas and they will be in a 30 gallon tank. Do you have anymore accessories or things I should get them? Their names will be Old Cornelia, Jessie Jewel, and Parker Posie! Love you and your vids and I hope you get the diagnosis that you want very soon. It's amazing to see someone who perseveres through things such as that and inspires minds and opens up a whole new world to them. I hope you have everything you need in life and never have to struggle. You really and truly deserve it.

Oh my gosh i love you! This video is perfect for me because I'll take my first ratties on Monday, three female. And all this is only because I saw your videos since 2015, I've learned a lot from you, thank you so much for make my dream possible 🥰

Thank you so much I’ve recently just got 4 rats and this helped!

Thank you for this! I make my mix but I was worried I was doing it wrong!

You have helped me give my rats the best life possible. Thank you so much ❤❤❤

This helped so much! I took notes on my notebook and hopefully if I get rats soon I can use this! Ik it’s sounds dumb but I really want to get rats so I’m preparing even if idk if I’ll be able to

Thank you so much for this! I can tell my girls are bored of their regular block food so this will be a great change!

IVE BEEN WANTING THIS VIDEO FOR SO LONG TY

You could totally make a part. 2 of this video with the more complex version of your rat mix 🐀 I’m sure that would be very interesting and less confusing (double recipe) since you would have that first video to refer people. Or you could simply integrate that in an upcoming vlog 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🥰 I love your channel btw 🐀🐀

Hi! I'd love to see this video for mice! Thanks so much! xx

I know this is an older video but thank you so much for making it. I just made my own mix and I have been worried I missed something. But now I feel great about it. 😁👍

Thank you so much Emmie!!

Yayyy, I have been waiting for this! How do you adapt/modify it for your mice?

This video has helped me alot. I thought mixes were super complicated and confusing and expensive so I didn't do any reasurch on them and instead got my rats a boring pellet food (which they actually quite enjoy but I don't like giving them as it just looks so boring 😅) . After watching your video, it has really shown me that making a mix isn't that complicated and confusing and I'm now thinking to start making their food too. Ofcource I'm only using your video as a guide and I won't be copying it item by item 🙃

This is so helpful! Thank you! X

I love your channel so much

I pretty much do the same. But great video I researched for weeks about making my own. But it's so much easier 😊

Now I know how you've got such wealthy looking rats. Thanks! I've saved this video in my favorite list.

This is so helpful Many thanks 😊

I don’t even own a rat but I found it informative and your rats are adorable 🥰 🐁 💕

Thank you!! I’ve been looking into getting rats but, i had no idea what the best food to feed them is 🐀

I'm amazed about the dried pasta!?

I m getting a rats so thank you for rad food idea. Love your videos💚❤💛

What a great mix! Your rats must be so healthy :)

Very helpful, thank you

Thank you so much for making this video. It's a little frustrating when pet youtuber does not want, on life and death, to show how to make a simple basic mix, even though I understand it. But when the best forums are not in your own language, plus one is dyslexic, then it's quite frustrating not to be able to get a single aid on how to figure out by making a homemade mix.

Thank you so much for posting this video, it is so important that rats get the nutrition necessary, and I have been looking for a good mix for my girls for a while now! I do have one question, I'm sort of new to this and wondering if it is acceptable to add un-dried fresh veggies to their diet, as well as if cooked pasta would also be nutritious. Love your content!

I love your videos, thank you!

I swear crumble is the cutest rat I've ever seen

Thanks so much for this video!

I love ur videos they have been helping me too much🐀🐀🐀🐀

Thank you for this

i’m getting two rats at the end of the month so i’ve been binge watching all your videos

Awww they r so cute ur rats 💖☺️

I gust got my rat 6 month ago ur vid helped me so much thank for making ur channel

is the rosewood naturals herb mix okay for rats as it doesent say on the packet you can give it to them so just wondered and what about the dandelion salad stuff you have there which ive seen in b and m,s

Would the red split lentils not count as a Protein rather than Processed Grain?(Going by the guide photo)

Hi, and great video. Could you kindly post a link to the picture of the green Shunamite homemade rat mix chart. All the ones I've seem are fuzzy making the text barely readable. Many thanks

Can you use hay in the herbs and veggies section? What hay would you recommend (with dried herbs too and carrots)
