Well I finally joined the club

Made to trip to meet Greg tonight (triton) and picked up my new project.






Should be breedable soon and very tame so far. 2 groups of 1.4.


I'll add this to the rats, gerbils and hamsters already on the shelves.

Congrats! Is that a regular mouse in the 1st picture? Do they interbreed with the ASFs?

That's just an albino ASF.

I think you have a normal mouse with your asf mice, you mite want to get that out of there if you haven't done so

So I keep hearing a lot about these ASFs. The only thing I don't like that I am hearing is how once you starting using them for feeders your snakes won't eat anything else.
How true is this? I know I can get rats all day long here but as far as ASF rats I'm not sure who actually deals in them around here.

Given all their different personalities, I don't doubt that some snakes would get hooked on them. Especially if they're imprinted on them when they're younger with a lot of them. I breed rats, mice, and ASFs here. My snakes will for the most part happily eat anything I dangle into the tub. As long as you're still feeding rats regularly along with the soft furs, it's doubtful you'll have a problem. They're always nice to have around as a backup for when the rats aren't producing as much as you need, too.

If you were closer, I'd hook you up with a couple breeder trios to get you started.

So where does one come by these large quantities of rats/ASFs with which to start a colony? I'm almost done building my homemade rack but the only venue around here with quantities of rats for sale is Petco. They don't sell ASFs and the last time I got rats from them, the rats were sneezing right out of the box. So I'm still trying to figure this one out.
