Think my Carpets can take small rats now?

Hey all, I want your opinions for meal sizes for these guys. 1.0 pure coastal, 0.1 pure IJ. Both are 4 ft long. Had them since late june/early july and they both were great feeders until now, the coastal has refused to eat the past month (4 meals), and the IJ her last. They strike and constrict then just leave the F/T rats. Anyways, I know this is normal but what do you guys think of small rats for these guys? The IJ is gaining size nicely, but the coastal hasnt grown much. Heres a pic of each.

I don't think smalls would be a problem for those two at all. Very nice carpets btw too.

A small rat for any four foot carpet is no problem. You could honestly go bigger.

Didn't you already post this? Yes, he can definitely take larger than a small rat if he really is 4ft.
