His favorite treat that he's allowed to have is strawberry. He LOVES strawberry! He is also a huge fan of burritos and other Mexican style food, like tacos. He'll do anything for some of that stuff, filled with things like beef, cheese, lettuce, sour cream, spices, salsa... He doesn't get that kind of food. I wish it wasn't so bad for him, otherwise I'd love to give him some for an extra-special treat.

Rex goes absolutely nuts for this one brand of ig. pellets... I'm pretty sure they're by LM Animal Farm. They come in this pringle-esque can, and Rex runs right to the cage door whenever I wave the bottle (I only feed them as a treat when she's out of her cage).
Rex has never liked fruit, and sometimes she seems to like yellow bell peppers, but it's pretty much just dandelines for Rex

Buddy will do just about anything to get some extra fruit... Raspberries, blueberries, and blackberries are her favorites. She doesn't really seem to prefer one over another.

I think her favorite treat (which she is not allowed to have) would be ICE CREAM! Sounds strange... but whenever I walk into the room with a bowl of ice-cream, she starts going NUTS! Practically bouncing off the walls of her enclosure! I don't know why she wants it so bad, considering she never has (at least while I've owned her).

For some reason... she thinks the carpet is food too. First thing she does when I let her out is start trying to eat the carpet. I still haven't figured out how to get her to STOP, short of putting her back in her cage.
