Mice will do well on a good commercial rodent chow, either in block or pellet form. You can find this food at pet supply stores and feed stores--just be sure the formula you select contains at least 16 percent protein and 18 percent fiber, and not more than 4 percent fat.
Offering small amounts of fresh fruit and vegetables to your mice every day as treats. Peas, broccoli, carrots, apples and bananas are good foods to start with, but you may need to experiment to find your pets’ favorites.
Fresh, clean water should be available at all times. A water bottle with a drinking tube that attaches to the side of the cage is the best way to go.
Do not give your mice cabbage, chocolate, corn, candy, junk food, peanuts, uncooked beans or onions.
