rat pups are higher in fat and lower in calcium than adult mice, making them less suitable for a corn's staple diet. i just give mine a rat pup as an occasional treat, like me having a McDonalds! (ok, Burger King, lol)
at 18-24" she's only a youngster, and needs correct nutrition, i'd feed her 1-2 small mice (depending on the size) every 5-7 days instead.
