Ummm... I'm not sure exactly what you meant to ask here...

If you're asking about jumbo RATS, yeah he could probably handle those OK.

If you really meant jumbo RABBITS which is what you posted info for, you should be able to see by the weight that these are TEN TIMES the size of the large rats you're feeding him now.

He could probably eat SMALL rabbits with no problem, but I wouldn't go much biger than that.

Does your burm weight much more than 8 pounds???

>>Box Space Taken: 31% what is this?

This means that they can only get 3 of these in a shipping box. Shipping runs around $35 per box depending on where you live.

>>GPX Box Space Taken: 15% what is gpx?

I'm not familiar with this one...maybe they can use bigger boxes for Ground shipping?
