    Cost for ASF rats?
    What do you guys usually pay for live asf rats that you buy from shows (males and females)?

    I'm doing a reptile show this weekend and I have no idea what a good price for asf rats.

    Also plain white live feeder mice as well. They're smalls I'd say.

    Thanks!

    I paid $25 for a 1:3 colony of ASFs. But ASFs are hard to come by where I live.

    I paid 2 bucks a piece for my ASF I think, there were subadults and adults available for that price.

    Varies pretty widely. Up at the Pittsburgh show, I used to pay anywhere from a buck each to five each depending on who they were from.

    Sadly, the going price in my state is $25 for a single ASF.

    It really depends upon your location. I've found them around here for $1.50 each.

    $25 each?? Which state? *starts gassing up the truck*

    I think the going rate around here is usually from $2-5 each for sub-adults.

    It really depends on where you are located. I get adults here for $3 each but they can go for a lot more.

    Do you happen to live in Orlando? because there is a Repticon show here tomorrow. I actually breed them. I found a local guy who had a few colonies and I paid $4.00 each. I just breed them for my picky eaters. I try to handle them to keep them tame. They would be considered pet quality. I hate mean rats and those ones get selectively fed off first if they are trouble makers :D They should have someone who sells them at the show if you are from here. Don't pay more than $4.00 each and get the pied colored ones (white and gray) they tend to be the nicest from my experience. good luck!
