I have tried the "gradual mixing" method (letting rats/mice thaw together, then feeding only the mice, eventually the rat). My adult female JCP just simply won't eat rats, no matter what. Once when she was really hungry, she struck and constricted a rat, but let it go once she got a good smell of it. Like Eric said earlier in this thread, I have just accepted it and feed her about 15 mice every week or so (just put them in a dog bowl/dish, she takes them one at a time).
