I feed both rats and mice. I was hesitant to try rats, as I was afraid my snakes wouldn't switch back to mice, but so far they all take either. I've found that the snakes bulk up quicker with rats than with mice. Also, it takes a lot less time to grow a rat to the 40-50 gram range than it takes a mouse to get even close to that. I was going to try a feeding experiment in the near future. I have 8 corns left that were hatched in July. I'm going to seperate them into two groups. Feed the control group mice and feed the test group rats, and chart their growth. I'll let you know what I come up with. I'll probably start in february.
