At what age/size do you usually start feeding rats to your bloods?

of the Rat! You can basically switch anytime, just make sure the rat is appropriately sized. If they have been taking down large adult mice without a problem for awhile, it should be ok to start feeding them small rats. What size are the bloods in question.. and maybee we could reccomend an appropriate sized rat?

My female was born the beginning of august. She can eat a very pregnant adult mouse and you can't tell she ate a thing... I was thinking of just getting two very fat mice, but thought maybe rats would be better. I have no idea how long she is... she's in shed right now, and I'm twiddling my thumbs waiting for her to shed so I can take new pics...

Hey,
I usually make the switch after the first year, but like Jordan said, you can make the switch anytime, so long as the food is sized accordingly.
