So my male ball has been finicky with his food lately since it is breeding season. I know they CAN go off feed for almost 8 months, but the fact that he'd had nothing to eat in a few weeks just bothered me. So, I decided to pick up a few ASFs to try out after hearing that ASFs put them back into eating mode like butter.... and sure enough the one I offered him disappeared and a little lump in his belly appeared. I am satisfied. Definitely planning on stocking the freezer with them for him if the next few feedings go as well as todays. Anyone else use ASFs?
