> A rat pink should be ok for the time being, but I'd try to get mouse fuzzies or mouse hoppers if you can, and waiting to offer rats until she's big enough for jumbo adult mice or rat pups/weaned rats.

Oh really, I bought rats specifically because I heard they were more nutritious, but what you're saying about feeding as fully-developed a rodent as possible makes sense. It looks like my local petsmart carries "arctic mice" brand mice-icles, which are crazy expensive per-mouse, but still a lot cheaper than having them shipped. I'll see what other options are available around here.
