What Dave said is probably true, not really sure. But the only way to feed them the correct size prey with fur is to feed them mice. Otherwise you would have to feed them a weaned rap pup, which might be too big. Really depends on how big your baby boa is. I heard about feeding mice to baby boas from Celia at Exotics by Nature. I would go to her site and email her. She is very helpful. www.boaconstrictormorphs.com She might have a little more information about this. I have heard some other positive things about feeding mice because they aren't so fatty. The only positive thing I've heard about feeding rats is it makes them grow faster. Hope this helps.
