Read moreRat herbs & seeds – variety, foraging and 'harvest' to hide and scatter
Rats are smart, curious omnivores that, in the wild, are constantly searching, selecting, and "scanning" for edibles. That's precisely why herbs and seeds are such a great addition: not as a staple food, but as a variety, as a foraging reward, and as an extra challenge in the cage. Consider seed mixes, kernels, ears/harvest, and aromatic herbs that you can scatter, hide, or offer in a puzzle feeder.
In this category, you'll find a carefully selected range of products suitable for pet rats and your daily routine: from "scatter food" for foraging to herb mixes for variety. Always combine this with a good basic diet. Specialists in rodents and rabbits since 2011.
Herbs and seeds are ideal as extra variation, but basic food remains the core of the menu.

Choosing rat herbs & seeds – quick selection guide
Start with one question: do you mainly want variety (extra flavour), a foraging challenge (searching/working) or a scattering mix for the ground cover?
1) For variation (small addition)
- Choose dried herbs or a mild herb mix and offer small portions.
- Tip: Mix it up and see what your rats actually grab; preferences vary by group.
2) For foraging (search & work)
- Choose seeds, pits and “scatter feed” that you can hide in a digging box or in ground cover.
- Combine with Ratscaping or ground cover for a natural “search field”.
3) For 'harvest' (ears/bouquets)
- Harvest/ears are great for picking and “stripping”: it takes time and keeps rats busy.
- Hang it safely or offer it in a fixed corner to keep the cage tidy.
✔ Practical tip: Want to reduce the noise of food in the cage? Place seeds primarily in a digging box or in foraging toys, not throughout the enclosure.
What can you find in Rat Herbs & Seeds?
In this category you will mainly find products that you can use as a bonus or as an enrichment :
- Dried herbs & spice mixes – a fragrant variety, ideal as a small addition.
- Seeds & kernels – perfect for scattering or hiding (note: some seeds are fattier, so dose wisely).
- Harvest/ears/bouquets – “picking fun” that keeps rats busy and encourages natural behavior.
- Herbal pellets or functional mixes – handy for those who like to dose consistently and neatly.
How do you feed herbs and seeds to rats?
Think of herbs and seeds as supplements , not as foundations. A practical guideline: let rat food and/or pellets play the leading role and use herbs and seeds for variety and foraging opportunities.
- Start small: give a small pinch or a few seeds and see how your group reacts.
- Note: Energy-rich: kernels and some seeds are higher in fat; dose extra sparingly for rats that gain weight quickly.
- Make it functional: combine with snacks and reward in a targeted manner (e.g. during training or taming).
Foraging & enrichment – how to use it in the cage
Want to keep rats really engaged? Turn feeding into an activity. Here are some easy ways:
- Sprinkle in bedding (or just in a corner) so they have to search for it.
- Digging bin method: Hide seeds in a separate bin so the rest of the cage stays clean.
- Food puzzles and foraging toys – ideal for smart rats that need a challenge.
Storage & hygiene – keeping everything fresh and safe
Herbs, seeds, and harvested produce stay freshest when stored dry, cool, and sealed . Check regularly for moisture, crumbling, and any unusual odor.
✔ Store airtight (jar/can) and out of direct sunlight
✔ Hang the “harvest” firmly and dry in the cage, replace when dirty
✔ Remove residues from wet corners (hygiene = happy airways)
Checklist – Rat herbs & seeds that “work”
✔ Basic remains basic: combine with rat food and/or pellets
✔ Dose wisely: seeds/kernels = often energy-rich
✔ Make it enrichment: scatter/hide or use foraging toys
✔ Choose “search spots”: digging bucket, ratscaping corner or feeding puzzle
✔ Hygiene: replace contaminated harvest and remove leftovers in a timely manner
Safety
Always feed herbs and seeds in moderation , in line with your overall diet. Pay extra attention to rats that gain weight quickly: in that case, opt for "search-and-find" feeding with small portions instead of larger quantities. Remove any items that have become damp or smell unusual. For persistent health issues, consult a veterinarian (herbs are a supplement, not a replacement for medical care).
FAQ – Rat herbs & seeds
Are herbs and seeds “healthy” for rats?
As a supplement: yes. Think of it as variety and enrichment alongside a good basic diet. Dose seeds wisely, as some are energy-rich.
Can I give this every day?
That's possible, as long as the portions are small and you use it as a foraging opportunity. Vary the diet and keep it balanced.
What exactly is “harvest”?
Harvest/ears/bouquets are picking products that rats have to "strip" for seeds or plant parts. This takes time and naturally stimulates foraging behavior.
Which combination works best?
Basic feed + a small amount of bedding mix in a digging bucket + occasional harvested food. For an extra challenge, combine this with foraging toys .
