Thats great Bill :) .Looks like everyone is getting into these rats,soon regular rats will be worthless :P
Re: Looking for African Soft Fur Rats in Iowa/Minnesota!!!
Well my main reason for getting them is for a couple girls I have that that came from someone as "great eaters". The one female eats one prey item every other week during a couple months in the summer. She is a very light colored interesting girl, but she need to eat regularly and gain some weight.
Another reason for getting these is they don't ever out grow the size of a good meal for a ball python. Unlike my large rats that have a small window of usefulness and then they are to big to feed. I also have a couple of mice feeders that I would like to convert to these instead.
I still plan on having mice and regular rats for feeding, but plan to experiment with the soft furs some. ;)

Bill,
Once you get those breeding colonies established let me know if you'll have any extras that you'd part with. It's been a heck of a time trying to find them around here, I'd willingly drive down to buy a few off you and see the collection. LMK:rockon:
