I haven't used it myself, but I know some people are using it and seemed to like it. If I remember correctly, their gerbils didn't really like muesli type food, but this one they really enjoy.
I just got a £1 off voucher for Pets At Home for small animal food, so I thought I would buy this to try it out as it seems to be different to muesli type of food.

I have often looked at that food but assumed my gerbil wouldn't like it due to the appearance be similar to others they don't like - so I would love to hear if it is a popular food and has a great eat-up ratio.
Let us know what they think.

My first impressions are slightly mixed - the protein is a little high and fat a little low - but the boys seem to like it. It has pellets mostly, but also lots of seeds and dried leaves including whole wheat ears which Meriones and Mars love! It also smells very nice to my human nose. I'm not sure if I need to feed them a greater volume of food since the 'forage' pieces are so large though. I think if I get it in the future I might mix it with a food that's slightly low in protein and slightly high in fat to balance it out!

I do a 50/50 mix with gerri gerbil and a few sunflower seeds. I have used this mix for about 4 months and all 12 of my gerbils have maintained weight and I've had no issues.
