had charlie now for nearly 6wks still cant get him on rats yet hes on jumbo mice no probs at all there,tried a rat fuzz no joy tried a rat pup no joy.What could i try next to encorage him to take rats.
The rat is nice and warm same as mice, turns his nose up at rat but strikes the mice and its gone.

Has anyone got a royal who does not feed rats period and is just on jumbo mice.
