J/K I use a mixture of lamb and rice (dog food) roasted peanuts (none salted) cracked corn, and a bunch of dried fruit and veggies. They seem to like the fruit and veggies more but they will eat all of the other stuff too. Rats will eat anything but you dont want them to be fat because you boas will be eating them and you dont want them to be fat too.

I feed mine Mazuri Rat food. It is in pellet form and is cost effective and healthy for the rats from what I've been told. It costs around $13 dollars for a 25 LB bag, available at any large feed store.

Sad to say I'm old enough to remember the original movie. Haven't seen the remake.
