I use to use sow pellets but found they would just chew thru the whole lot, leaving 60% min chewed into powder and totally wasted.

I did have better luck with the 'cigar' sized pig pellets, they were much harder and the mice only chewed what they wanted to eat.

I have now switched over to a dog biscuit, it's more expensive than pig pellets but is much higher in protien and vit content.
