Rat going on a diet??

[~*~Perfection~*~]

Ok i went to the vet to weigh my babies,
Bear - a huge total of 0.4 pounds
twister - Another grand slam at 0.5 pounds
Torpedo - A wee little of 2.1 pounds.

The vet said I shoud consider putting Torpedo on a diet, but she eats way less then the other to, eat a heathy balenced diet already of fruits, veggies, seeds, nuts, and nutri-block. So i dont see the problem. What can i use to put my sweet Topedo on a diet?

What seeds and nuts are you feeding her, and how much? They tend to contain a lot of fat that rats don't need.  Nuts also contribute protein, but a lot of seeds are pretty much nutritionally empy for rats.

All three of my babies share a food dish i got from superpet. There isnt alot of nuts, like 3/4 per bowl full.
They all have eaten it for equal amount of time, exept Bear is only 6 weeks, Twister 2 months, and Torpedo is about 4 months.

**Edit 1/4 per bowl**

Fill the bowl as you would normally, then pour the contents into a measuring cup.  That will help us get an idea of how large the bowl is.
