In this video I go over how you can teach your rats to accept food through the cage bars without biting anything thats not food (like fingers) that are poked through. Enjoy!

how long did it take until they got the message?
I tried this with my boys and they did understand not to bite my hands when I put babyfood on there but the "hard" treats confused them, they started biting again

Okay I got your link and I watched it and it is very interesting and I got the concept but I am having a hard time understanding where to put the box or block of wood. Do I put it where she likes to get off the couch as she jumps down in a couple of places. Also should jumping on the box = going to the cage right away for a minute then back out, then repeat for 2 minutes, then 5 minutes ECT??? Is this the way to teach her not to jump on the floor so she stays on the couch? I'm so sorry for being a pain for you but I am a novice when it comes to this. Could you make a video of something like this?? Thanks again and have a great weekend, John

thank you!! I didnt know it was possible to teach the rats this, I was worried because so many people almost instinctively poke their fingers through the bars and I wouldnt want anyone getting hurt.

Thank you for your reply but I am confused about the elevator or on the box method as I can not find this video of yours??? Thanks again, your awesome!🐀

This has been super helpful. My boys don't bite through the bars but I've also never fed them through the bars, the only get given treats at the door of the cage when called. I might start giving them the occasional treat through the bars as I'm now confident that they won't start biting (I'm always poking their little snoots and feet through the bars)
