Review


My rats had more fun batting at this & watching it swing. I hung it off their 2nd story loft away from the sides of the cage, making it more of a challenge to get the food & they needed to learn to hold it still with their paws. The rats can either take bites of the blocks in the hopper, or work them out one by one.

My girls are hoarders, grabbing food running off & stashing it then repeat until all the food is gone. This feeder discourages that, a great idea from Lixit. There has been one occasion where the bottle needed to be shook to get the food down into the dispenser area. But the rats can reach up and use their hands...I did not wait to see how long it would take them to do this. I will not have to worry that there will be clean food available to all.
Replacement tops are available for $2.00
