Frozen Weaner Rats

Frozen Weaner Rats: The Perfect Mid-Sized Feeder for Reptiles

At Frozen Rodents Australia, we provide frozen weaner rats in two sizes: small weaner rats (50-59 grams) and large weaner rats (60-69 grams). These mid-sized feeder rats are perfect for medium to large reptiles and carnivorous pets that have outgrown hopper rats but are not yet ready for adult-sized rodents. As your reptile grows, transitioning to frozen weaner rats ensures they get the nutrition they need in a manageable size, making them an essential part of any reptile feeding regimen.


Nutritional Benefits of Frozen Weaner Rats

Frozen weaner rats offer a highly nutritious meal, packed with the right balance of proteins, fats, and essential nutrients. As your reptile grows, their caloric and nutritional needs increase, making weaner rats the perfect next step after hopper rats. These frozen rodents provide a more substantial portion without overwhelming your reptile, helping to fuel healthy growth and development.


Small Weaner Rats (50-59 grams)

Our small weaner rats are an excellent option for reptiles that are transitioning from smaller prey but aren’t yet ready for large feeder rats. Weighing between 50 and 59 grams, small weaner rats are the ideal size for medium-sized snakes, such as boas and pythons, as well as carnivorous lizards like monitor lizards and tegus. They provide a perfect balance between nutrition and size, ensuring your reptiles receive the energy they need without overfeeding.


Large Weaner Rats (60-69 grams)

For reptiles that require a bit more food, large weaner rats weigh between 60 and 69 grams and are ideal for bigger reptiles that have outgrown smaller feeders. These larger weaner rats offer a significant nutritional boost while still being easier to digest than fully grown adult rats. They are perfect for larger snakes, like ball pythons, that need more food to maintain energy and growth but aren’t yet ready for adult rats.


Frozen Weaner Rats: Safe and Convenient Feeding

Feeding frozen weaner rats offers several advantages for both you and your reptiles. Frozen feeders eliminate the risks associated with live feeding, such as potential injury to your pet from live prey. Additionally, our frozen weaner rats are humanely sourced and ethically euthanized, providing peace of mind that you are feeding your reptiles safe, high-quality food.


Frozen feeders also provide convenience. You can stock up on frozen weaner rats and store them for long periods, ensuring you always have food on hand without the risk of spoilage. Simply thaw the frozen weaner rats as needed, and you have a fresh, nutritious meal ready for your reptiles.


Why Choose Frozen Weaner Rats?


  • Nutritional Balance: Weaner rats provide an optimal blend of protein, fat, and essential nutrients, supporting healthy growth in reptiles.
  • Ideal for Transitioning: Weaner rats are perfect for reptiles that are too large for smaller prey but not yet ready for adult rats.
  • Convenient Bulk Buying: Frozen weaner rats can be purchased in bulk, stored for months, and used when needed, saving time and money.
  • Safe and Humane: Feeding frozen prey eliminates the risks of live feeding and ensures that your reptiles are consuming safe, healthy food.


Perfect for Educational and Research Facilities

Frozen weaner rats are also an excellent option for use in educational and research environments. Due to their manageable size and development stage, frozen rats are commonly used for anatomical studies, dissections, and various biological research projects. Their mid-sized bodies provide an excellent model for understanding rodent anatomy and physiology.


Conclusion

Whether you’re feeding medium-sized snakes, carnivorous lizards, or using them in a research setting, frozen weaner rats are the perfect choice.
