Keep in mind many small meals = easier to digest. My female albig at 5 foot. Stil rarely eat's rats, if she gets Rats they are small, and med at the largest. She get's mostly Chicks, Mice, Seafood items, and now Snails. The laragest items she get's is fish, but they digest easy and fast.

I'd still stick with Mice, sure it's a lot of Mice, but looking at the nutritional content value of Mice, and Rats, Mice have a edge on Rats. At least for me, I find Mice are cheaper as well.



Cheers,
Chad
