mice not rats...

in the case of jungle carpets...they really aren't big enough for rats...yes they can take pink rats at hatching..but pink rats don't crawl or wiggle enough for good feed responces...

rat pinks have no hair...some snakes will hit on hairy critters quicker than bald ones...(even corns and ratsnakes...)

jcp will eat mice...and won't eat rats.....this is true on alot of them from all I hear and have experienced...

I had some start on birds....(I used ducks)....no not the whole duck...the fuzz from a duckling on the face if a fuzz mouse...

....I feed what they want...

oh...and people can get mice easier alot of times....

......like I mentioned...I had 2 pair jcp....and they ate mice 99% of the time and more.....they would not eat rats....(to the point they freaked out when I tricked them into half swallowing a rat a few times....)
