    ASF Breeding Questions

    I'm exploring the idea of trying to breed some ASF's. I want to do a trial run with a single breeding colony of 1.2-1.4 depending partially on whats available, and what you all recommend. At this point I'm not looking to produce enough to feed my entire collection, but feed a few problem child BP's that like making my live more difficult.

    So here is the setup I'm looking at running for the trial run:

    RBI Rat Breeding Cage (18.25" x 12" x 6.5")

    500 ml Water bottle:

    Plastic Hide:

    Bedding: probably aspen (open to suggestions)

    Food: Harlan 2018 Lab Block

    Am I missing anything? Any suggestions?

    My biggest question about ASF's is how they smell. As I said I'm not looking to have dozens ok them, at most 4 colonies of 1.4 (plus offspring) So how bad should it be?

    Thanks in advance!
