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.

Is there not another way to do it. Say with DHL or UPS?

We use delta dash for our snakes and rodents. They can be shipped live. All you need is an account with delta airlines.

One thing to consider is the regulations in your area. These critters are masters in the art of escaping and boy do they reproduce! Where there are cold winters I guess we would be kind of safe, but I don't really know what ecological nightmare they can create if they get loose in FL.

That's a very interesting thought, Dan. I have thought about that around here, as I have had issues with a certain age of baby ASF escaping the racks, apparently just old enough to be getting quite active, yet small enough to squeak through the space between the top of the tub and the rack section above. I've found a couple on the floor of the rodent room alive and well, and a couple of them OUTSIDE of the room....and I have no earthly idea how they could have gotten out of the room itself. (They were little ASF-sicles though, the bulding outside of the room is not heated).
I have put a shim of sorts in the rack now, so I can barely slide the tubs in and out, but as far as I can tell, it's keeping them in. My ol man's theory was to put cats in the rodent room to destroy all escapees before entering the outside world LOL.
But seriously, I have heard rumor that ASF are not allowed some places, but have not been able to find much in the way of documentation of anything of the sort.

I know people seem to need these guys. I just started raising them, I am in Ohio. I got 1.4 a little over a month ago and I've already got 4 litters out of them. If anyone is looking for them in this area, I'd be more than happy to supply you. Of course, no shipping though
my email is abby214@live.com

I have a colony of ASF rats going. I am located in Oregon. We also have a surplus of about 1000+ rats a week and 4000+ mice a week if anyone is looking for rodents.
Thanks,

They are illegal in CA. Just a heads up if you are planning on getting live ones.
