Passing on an RI...

Now I have a female and male rat both with RI's (a guess because of CONSTANT sneezing).. I just traded my RTB for an adult FEMALE ball python. (I don't want a central american, I want a columbian!). Anyway my new female ball could handle one of these rats easy. The question is if I feed her the rat with a possible RI will she catch it??

Nobody knows eh? This is kind of urgent because I have someone who wants to take the rats off of my hand (because I have new healthy ones) and I want to keep one for a meal if it is safe. :P

A snake can't catch an RI from eating a rat.
