Age Old Question(Rats vs Mice)

I've recently have been reading about breeding feeders for my three 2001 corn snakes. I know this subject has been an on going debate on this forum and others, but I am finding it quite difficult to make the choice. My main concern is that I breed healthy mice or rats which will continue feed my corns who I am interested in breeding in either 2003 or 2004. My first question is whether corns are capable of consuming a grown rat. Reason being is when time to retire a feeder I want to be sure my snakes would eat him/her. Also the big debate that I've read is the nutrition values, so I ask if any reputable breeds have said whether they feed their snakes mice or rats. I thank everyone before hand for their time and effort in helping me make an educated decision on this matter. By the way I have no problem euthinising(sp?), and I ve had herps since I was 14.
