Talking She finally toke a rat :D

My royal finally took a rat. I feed her and jumbo mice then put a fuzzy rat nose up the bum of the mice as she was taking it down. she took them both easily. How much more time will i have to do this till she will willingly take a rat.. do you think ??

Thanks

Congrats!!

Not sure about your question though, I only have 1 royal and it has only ever been on rats, though I should imagine a couple of feeds will do it.
