Asf foster mice ???

Well im tring right now,mother mouse ate 14 babies 3 left put them in with a litter of asf's the same size we shall see what happens ,ill keep everybody posted.

It could work I had a Gerbil and an ASF have litters at the same time and I switched a baby from each litter and both mothers raised the strange baby as their own.

When I was trying to get some hatchling balls started I had a couple hoppers left over from babies that ate rat pups instead.... anyway I threw the hoppers in with my ASF's and had no problems.

I have had two litters of mice from the same female. fostered by two different mothers in two different tanks, (ASF's). And never had a problem.

Hope this helps.

I posted something here awhile ago about ASF fostering mice. Be sure to rub a little ASF bedding on the mice first.

Good Luck!!!! :)

Thats wierd.... everytime I have given it a try the asf moms kick out the mice pinks...

still nursing & taking care of the mice should be good !!

I tried it with a rat pink and the ASF mom ate off one of its legs...

I have never had to rub bedding on my pinks. They just feed em like their own.
Maybe my ASF's are a little slow. LOL
