I take back all the posts and threads of me degrading ASFs:P
I went and picked up three trios + an extra male for $32 Good deal?

( I tried feeding her a normal rat this morning, so excuse the mess)
one of my two black pastel females that wouldnt eat:D Now lets get these things breeding so I can feed her some more!

Re: well...
Considering these things were what $75.00 a trio only a couple of years ago, I think you did just fine. Last time I bought some we paid $5.00 each but it's been awhile (I need some new bloodlines!)
Can't beat ASF's. I've yet to have any of our picky feeders turn there nose up at a nice chubby ASF. :)
I used to be a non-believer too and although we'll always (or at least for now) breed both regular rats and ASF's, I really am impressed with the ASF's and our snake's reaction to them.

I agree, though I've only had them for a few hours im liking their ability to change this one non feeder. Im going to try to get a few racks full to feed my breeders. I put the ASF in, shut the tub and BAM I heard the whole rack shake:D The rest of my snakes came out too, Ironic!

Re: well...
welcome to the dark side!
$3.20 per ASF is a good price! Would be hard to find much cheaper then that. I still charge $5.00 each for mine... but mine consist of 4 unrelated lines... So let me know when you want to freshen things up!!!

Re: well...
I think thats a fair price, I bought 1male and 4 females from a breeder here that charge me $25. He threw in a free male and one of the females grew some testies. So it ended up being 3 males and 3 females lol.,..

LOL right?
I had that happen to me, If youre looking quickly at a show or something, its understandable, but its actually REALLY easy to tell, even on young weaners so someone whos never even dealt with them before should be able to tell. Two close holes = Girl, Far apart = Boy. Grab a few babies and just look at them....:gj::D
