congrats on the preggo asf's. I hope to start a small breeding colony of those for myself soon, those and reg rats. :D
Re: Pregnant asfs!( Pics)
Congrats. Looks like your ASFs have been feeding at the same golf ball dispenser as mine. :)
They're funny. Look in one day, not pregnant... look in the next day... and W:OW pregnant!

Unless this is the first litter, they should get much bigger then that in a day or two...

I normally do, but with my camera in hand the tail was all I could manage:) They still spin pretty bad when I hold them by the scruff, they try to bite me when I do!

I would love to see proof of this, really... anyone....
My experience with both species, ASF's drink the same amount of water as a domestic rat the same size. Same for food consumption and potency of smell as far as I can tell. (I still want to upchuck when I clean their tubs)
Let's stop the propagation of false rumors!!
