Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

My first ASF colony
I just got my first ASFs (African Soft Furred Rat). They are super cute, super soft and these four are very hand tame and friendly (although that might change when they start breeding, the large female is preggers right now.
I have three Amber pied, and one Agouti Pied.

yes, it will change once they start breeding. i was making 300-400 a month off of 6 1.2 groups. i had to actually feed off the breeders to allow time to feed off all their offspring before breeding again..

Wow, that seems like a lot, Bradley! Is that normal for house mice as well, or are ASFs simply super producers?

I know for a fact that ASF are high producers, some can have 20+ per litter!

i'm not sure on that. the only thing i've bred are ASFs. they are super producers. my average litter size was 10-15... sometimes the older breeders giving less than that. in my experience with them... once one of the females drop... the other one drops close to that time and before the first batch were completely weaned... the same female drops again. it seems like they'll have a litter about every 15-25 days.
