Yes. Even if there is another food source, and even if you have the correct mix from the store or are feeding them your own natural forage mix that you would have researched upon of course, they will eat bodies and live mice.
It stops other predators from coming to scavenge the dead mouse and also provides protein for the livings.
sad but true.
i actually cleaned a breeding mice tank out intended for a snake terrarium, theyd been forgotten for 2-3 months by my friend. there WERE 4. now there is 2. One little bit fat male/female, still a bit skinny to see testes, the other a bit skinny, not too sure if its a surviving litter mouse or not, but there were NO CARCASSES in the smelly 2 month old bedding paper and shavings.
so.
no.
