Eventually, I want to try f/t again since he is eating steadily now. Although I am prepared for the fact that he may already be a mouser, I want to try rats once I find a steady supplier (folks don't want me storing f/t). He always attacks the head and dispatches the prey in short order but I've noticed a couple of feeders aggressively fighting for their life, and it scares me. So here's to trying f/t rat pups soon.
