    Switching mice to rats.

    Ok so i got a 2011 spider female (my profile pic) in 2011 and i have been having so many issues with her for such a long time, she's tiny.
    Before anybody lectures me on why she is only on mice when she's over 2 years old i'm about to explain.
    Basically she refuses rats, like literally will not eat anything other than mice, i have tried scenting and slipping in a rat after she has taken the mouse but nothing works.
    Has anybody got any ideas what i can do? i'm constantly trying to switch her over so i can assure you she's in no harm but I'm sure she wont grow until she starts taking rats.

    Cheers
    Jack
