After over a year of research into the nutritional needs of mice, I decided to create my own food mix due to most commercial foods not having much variety and often not meeting our pets nutritional needs. Made with over 50 natural, whole ingredients, my premium mouse food mix provides true variety for any mouse; unlike most commercial mice foods which usually contain 5-15.

Feed ~ 1 teaspoon per day per mouse. I also suggest feeding a forage mix and fresh vegetables at least once a week.

To encourage natural foraging behaviours I recommend scatter feeding your food rather than feeding exclusively in a bowl. In my experience this is also one of the best ways to tackle boredom and can keep your mouse busy for hours.

*This food is not fortified, meaning no extra micronutrients have been added, nor have they been calculated for this mix. It is common understanding that this is not necessary in a mix with high variety (much like in our own diet, where we do not calculate each nutrient, but instead eat a variety of foods to provide us with all needed nutrients.) However if you do not feel comfortable with this, you can choose to feed pellets (i.e. fortified food) alongside - I recommend adding about 50g of pellets to a 250g bag or 100g for a 500g bag.*

 

*The fat content in homemade mixes needs to be higher as the ingredients are unprocessed and harder to break down, meaning the fat will get digested at a slower rate and won't all be absorbed - this best mimics your small pets natural diet. In commercial mixes, the fats usually come from processed sources, which means that it is digested more quickly - which is why they typically have a lower fat content.

Food for mice

This food was sprinkled on other food and went down a treat with the fieldmice (small mouths). I specifically gave it to older and mice with challenging health problems, who like to forage and splash their food out of the food bowls!

Great mouse food

All my mice have really loved this food. They like the variety, plus there’s no hay pellets, which mice don’t eat.
Fully recommend.
One thing though I wish there was another mouse mix for elderly mice.

Best food on the market!

My mice absolutely adore this mix! Pricier than others yes but totally worth it to support a small business and provide the best food for my mice :) i only got them a small bag to try and they come straight out as soon as they hear me open the packet! Smells amazing too, such a wonderful mix and I highly recommend it - I’ll be ordering them a larger bag soon to last them longer

My mice absolutely love it 🐭

I have been ordering from Bears Hamsters for a long time and am now happily a monthly subscriber. The mix is evidently high quality and on the occasions I have run out, it is plain to see that my mice are now thoroughly spoiled as they won't touch anything else! My only feedback for consideration would be for dispatch to be a little faster as it often takes 10-14 days from placing an order to receive it and perhaps offering free postage as part of the subscription package. Otherwise, the product is fantastic and the shredded cardboard packing it comes with is always enjoyed by my little ones as well. Thank you! 🐭

Fab!

Really difficult to find decent quality mouse food for my five girls, and so glad I found this site. My girls adore this food with no waste like the cheap brands. Only downside is its little pricey including delivery.
