Product description
Beaphar Care+ Rat 1.5 kg all-in-one rat food
Beaphar Care+ Rat 1.5 kg is a complete all-in-one pellet food for rats and dwarf rats. The food consists of extruded rat pellets with the same composition per pellet. As a result, your rats cannot eat selectively as with a mixed diet, and the daily feeding bowl remains organized.
At DRD, when it comes to rat food, we focus primarily on protein sources, energy, digestibility, portion control, and practical feeding reliability. Rats are intelligent omnivores and benefit from a clear basic diet that is easy to dose. Beaphar Care+ Rat contains, among other things, grains, vegetables, seeds, poultry, FOS, MOS, omega 3, and omega 6.

Why choose Beaphar Care+ Rat?
Rats can develop preferences with mixed diets. They like to pick the tastiest parts from the food bowl, while others are left behind. With all-in-one rat pellets, this is easier to prevent, because every pellet has the same composition. This way, your rats receive the same nutritional basis with every bite.
The extruded kibble makes mealtime clear and easy to portion. You can easily weigh out the daily portion and see more quickly if any food is left over. This is convenient when you want to offer fresh vegetables, small extras, or foraging moments alongside the basic diet without the menu becoming cluttered.
Beaphar Care+ Rat contains an animal protein source in addition to plant-based ingredients. This suits rats well, as they are omnivores. The combination of grains, vegetables, seeds, poultry, FOS, MOS, and omega fatty acids makes this pellet food complete as a daily basis.
For which animals is this food suitable?
- Dwarf rat: suitable as a complete pellet food. Because dwarf rats can vary in size, choose the portion based on the current body weight, build, and activity level of your animals.
- Rat: suitable as a complete pellet food for pet rats. Give the pellets as a weighed daily portion alongside appropriate fresh food, small treats, and clean drinking water.
This food is specially formulated for rats. For mice, dwarf hamsters, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, rabbits, chinchillas, and degus, you should preferably choose food that specifically suits the nutritional needs of that species.
Feeding & use
Feed Beaphar Care+ Rat as a complete pellet food for rats. The correct amount depends on weight, age, activity, condition, and what else you offer. Preferably, divide the portion over two feeding times or use part of the daily portion as a foraging challenge.
- Use the feeding table as a practical guideline per rat.
- If necessary, divide the daily portion over two feeding times.
- Hide some of the pellets in the enclosure to encourage natural foraging behavior.
- Adjust the amount based on weight, age, activity, and physical condition.
- Always introduce feed changes gradually by temporarily mixing old and new feed.
- Check appetite, weight, activity, and leftovers in the bowl regularly.
- Store the food in a dry, cool, and tightly sealed place.
A good daily routine is clear: a measured portion of rat pellets as a base, suitable fresh vegetables or small extras as a supplement, and sufficient foraging opportunities. This keeps feeding clear and aligns better with the curious behavior of rats.
Daily portion guideline
The recommended amount depends on your rat's weight and activity level. Use the table below as a practical starting point, and then carefully observe body condition, appetite, and how much is left over.
| Weight per rat | Daily portion guideline per rat | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| approx. 200–500 grams | approx. 11–22 grams per day | Often matches younger, lighter, or smaller rats and many dwarf rats. |
| approx. 500–800 grams | approx. 22–32 grams per day | Often fits larger, adult, or more active rats. |
This guideline is intended as a practical starting point. Always look at the individual animal. Especially with dwarf rats, it is important not to feed solely based on the name “dwarf rat,” but to carefully consider the actual size, build, and activity level.
✓ How long does this bag last?
Rats are social animals and should be kept with other rats. Therefore, we calculate below based on 2 rats. The duration of use depends on the daily portion per animal, age, activity, build, and how much is left behind or spilled.
| Situation | Daily portion for 2 rats together | About 1.5 kg goes with it |
|---|---|---|
| 2 lighter rats or dwarf rats | approx. 22–30 g per day combined | approx. 50–68 days |
| 2 average rats | approx. 30–44 g per day combined | approx. 34–50 days |
| 2 large or very active rats | approx. 44–64 g per day combined | approx. 23–34 days |
Calculation aid: volume in grams ÷ total daily portion for 2 rats = number of days. If your rats differ significantly in weight, use a guideline for each animal and add the daily portions together.
Compound
Cereals, vegetables, seeds, minerals, plant by-products, yucca schidigera 0.10%, echinacea 0.03%, green tea extract 0.01%, FOS 0.01%, meat and animal by-products, poultry 1.5%, yeast, MOS 0.19%, algae, spirulina 0.01%.
This composition is designed as a complete all-in-one pellet food for rats. The combination of grains, vegetables, and seeds forms a practical daily basis, while poultry adds an animal protein source suitable for omnivorous rats. FOS and MOS contribute to supporting the intestinal flora. Yucca schidigera is often used due to its role in controlling fecal odor. Echinacea, green tea extract, yeast, algae, and spirulina enrich the composition and help make the pellet food complete as an easily dosable daily basis.
Analysis
Crude protein 14%, crude fiber 3.5%, crude fat 3.6%, crude ash 3.6%, calcium 0.8%, potassium 0.49%, phosphorus 0.45%, sulfur 0.008%, sodium 0.22%, omega 3 0.25%, magnesium 0.14%, omega 6 0.72%, energy value 3000 kcal/kg.
This analysis is suitable for a complete all-in-one rat food with an easily dosable composition. The crude protein content of 14% is appropriate for a daily basic diet for rats, while the fat content of 3.6% and the energy value are suitable for animals that may also receive appropriate fresh food and small extras. The pellets provide a complete, clear basic portion.
Switching to Beaphar Care+ Rat
Switch gradually when changing food. Mix the new food with the old food for the first few days and gradually increase the proportion of Beaphar Care+ Rat. This allows your rats to get used to the smell, taste, and pellet texture.
- Day 1–2: mix a small amount of new food with the old food.
- Days 3–5: feed approximately half old, half new.
- Days 6–7: mainly new food with a small amount of old food remaining.
- Then switch completely when your rats continue to eat well and have normal droppings.
During the transition, pay close attention to appetite, activity, weight, and droppings. If you notice clear changes, build up more slowly or seek advice from a veterinarian knowledgeable about rats.
Good to know
Beaphar Care+ Rat is a complete pet food, but enrichment remains important. Rats are smart, active animals that enjoy searching, exploring, and cooperating. Therefore, you can offer part of the daily portion in a food puzzle, treat ball, digging box, or scattered throughout the enclosure.
- Store the food in a cool, dry, and tightly sealed place.
- Check leftovers regularly so that old food does not sit around for too long.
- Give snacks and extras in moderation, so that the basic diet remains well-eaten.
- For dwarf rats: adjust the portion to the actual size and build of your animals.
- Combine with appropriate enrichment, tunnels, hammocks, and foraging moments for an active daily routine.

Dit voer is eigenlijk alleen om oudere ratten aan te laten sterken of na een operatie etc etc want de eiwitten zijn een beetje aan de hoge kant en er is voor mij een megagroot nadeel: Het voer stikt naar Maggi (ken je nog wel van de soep) en dat houd in dat je hele huis stinkt naar dit voer omdat de rattenurine een vreselijke penetrante geur afgeeft ineens die bijna niet weg te krijgen is. Bij mij in de rattery komt dit dus niet meer binnen , hoe graag de ratten het ook eten want dat ze het lekker vinden is zo klaar als een klontje (maar de eiwitten en vooral de stank is een absolute no-go)

Sinds wij onze ratjes dit voer hebben gegeven, willen ze niets anders. Een keer om uit te proberen gemixt met voer van Versele-Laga, maar het Beaphar voer werd er tussenuit gegeten en het andere bleef liggen. Bovendien ruikt dit voer ook niet zo naar typisch dierenvoer, maar heeft een lekker kruidig tijm luchtje.

Zit een geur aan die ik niet prettig vind. Ook de ratten pakken deze brokken niet gelijk (tot dat ze weten dat ze echt niets anders krijgen, net kinderen;)

Een erg sterk kruidig ruikend voer, wat ook de ratten eerst even moesten wennen. Het feit dat het allemaal pellets zijn helpt wel, want ze eten het allemaal op, ipv de kleine stukjes laten liggen.

Beaphar Care+ Rat is naar mijn mening een van de beste rattenvoeders die er zijn. Mijn ratten eten de Care+ Rat heel goed. Ik vind het ook prettig dat het een alles in een brok is waardoor ik me geen zorgen hoef te maken om selectief eten, want dat kan niet meer. Er is ook minder rommel rondom de kooi en de poepjes zien er ook goed uit. Kortom erg goed voer!
