Hello!
Honestly, a treat that appears to just be a flour biscuit doesn’t sound like it’d be all that appealing to mice! Sure, it’s likely safe (provided your mice are wheat tolerant), but it doesn’t sound particularly interesting.
I generally go for more whole grains/seeds/insects as treats. Some favorites of ours are plain, raw oatmeal oats, pumpkin seeds, freeze-dried mealworms, and flaxseed. Millet and oat sprays are also favorites.
This list has some great ideas:
