Have you tried scenting the rats with stinky mouse bedding?

>>my male red blood just wont eat a rat. I gat him as a hatchling 3 years ago, he ate fine for the first 2 months and then went off food for 8 months. I tried all the standard trick and finally I found that he would eat small pinkie mice, but only one in a sitting. it was just silly they were so small compared to him. anyways he's been eating once a week for the last year and doing good, finally growing. but now he's pretty much outgrown mice but I cant get him on rats. any suggestions?
>>thanks, jeff
