The rat does give birth to a live young but at a consequence. When the rat gives birth the young is trapped in a poisonous sack just like the placenta. The rat will free its young by eating its own poisonous sack, but will die due to the build up of acid. The young will then feed on its mother to get strength.

Rats don't give birth to mice, rats give birth to rats. A young rat might be the size of a mouse but is still a rat. Of course if you are talking about how many they could dine on at a time I would think 4 to 6 would make a decent meal for a rat.
