I'm curious to see the answer to this as well as I've thought of getting it for my babes but worried about the kelp in it.  Let us know how your ratties like it!

I've fed Green Mush.  I mix it into the tofu mix.  It's great.

Yep, the dog version.   I've been giving it to my rats for almost a year.  I've been using it for a little over a year, almost a year and a half, actually for my dog.  It took me a while to realize that the rats would benefit from the product also.

I use Green Mush with my kiddos.  They really like it a lot and it's so good for them.  I love that it's completely organic and the plant foods have been lightly processed to make digestion and utilization easier.

Also, *cough* it's good in human smoothies *cough*

My boys LOVE the stuff!!! They chow it down in anything I put it in!!

I give the rats about 1/2 tsp overall, between 8 rats.  I mix it into their oatmeal.  The NuVet comes in either a powder or wafer form.  The wafers are very easily crushed.

I'm not worried about the alfalfa, as it's pretty far down on the ingredients list:

Blue Green Algae, Brewers yeast, Cat's Claw, Evening Primrose oil, Shark cartilage, oyster shell, alpha amylase, beta carotene, pine bark, papain, L Methionine, alfalfa, chicken liver, vitamin B1 (thiamin), vitamin B2 9pyridoxine), vitamin B12, Vitamin D, Vitamin K, Manganese, Magnesium, Iron, Copper, Amino Acids (tryptophan, threonine, isoluecine, leucine, lysine, methionine, crystine, phenylalaine, tyrosine, valine, arginine, histidine, alanine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid, glycerine)

Vitamins:  A, E, C
Minerals: Phosphorous, potassium, zinc, calcium, selenium


Another thing about NuVet is that it can be ordered by referral.  If anyone is interested, the phone number is:  1-800-474-7044,  Order Code: 64623.

For the NuVet, should one be concerned about the pine bark used as an ingredient?

For the Green Mush, is it one teaspoon per rat?

Thanks! Sounds like good stuff :3

Yikes, the poor thing! I'll definitely make sure I mix whatever I use very well, thank you for the warning.

At the top of this post there is a link to information about it, but I'll post it again.

I give liquid glucosamine to all of my rats in their oatmeal.  I look at it as a preventative and don't worry about whether it's just for older rats.  I've been giving it to them for years.  So if you're using Missing Link, it would be fine for all.  However, as a side note, if you're going to use the NuVet, you won't need the Missing Link.   NuVet also has NuVet Joint, which I give to my dog. Between the two, it's really slowed down his back end problems. 

When you have Sherlock home, try eating some of whatever it is you're offering him.  Their natural instinct is not to eat anything unless they've seen someone else eat if first, without keeling over.
