A few asf?s

I've got a 1.3 setup for one snake I know thats alot but how long does it take before they have there babys? How old do you think they should be before they are old enough to sell?

The age and size you sell depends on what people want to buy from you.

And you will be run over with rats at a 1.3 in no time at all. I would have 2 x 90-115 qt tubs set up on the side for grow ups, since it will take 1.5-2 months for the asf's to grow to a medium size.

The earliest they are sexually mature is around 2 months of age. However, that does not mean they will get pregnant right away, and seems to happen more in their 3-4 month of age.

My 3 females are pregnant right now, I didn't know how muched they produced until after i got them so ya but we have a expo so should I sell some baby to med size for feeding and the some breeders?

they take a long time to grow! and if the females don't breed they do not get that large at all seems like they double in size once they have a litter or two.

Amen to them taking a long time to grow! I have a 1.3 and a 1.4 and while I get a lot of babies they take a good two months to grow up to a decent feeding size if you are feeding adult BPs.
