Thanks!***Rats Don't Over Eat!***
You might wonder "When do i feed my rat? and how often?"
They should have food at all times. No they wont over eat or anything like that, and they wont become over weight from eating too much. They eat until they feel that they are full. They can become over weight from the foods you allow them to eat though. Fatty foods will make a fatty ratty. Simple as that.
