Yep we regularily find house mice that have a distinctly squashed look to them being played with by the darned cat. Apparently Bella the Lab does a front paw thump on the mice then gives over her prize to the stupid cat (who is her best buddy). Their little game though has worked. Haven't seen a house mouse around here for ages now. :)

I'm late to this thread, but I had a baby hopper ASF leap out of a tub of one of the hatchlings and I was like CRAP!

No fear though, Lexi was near and was on that hopper like white on rice! LOL

Just an update to this, and I believe I spoke about it in another thread....

To avoid this from ever happening again cost me less then 5 bucks.

I simply hot glued LARGE stainless washers to the water bottle holes on the inside of the tubs.... This way if I ever do again forget to put a bottle back in, the only thing they will be able to chew on is 1/8" thick stainless steel.

Wow, that sucks! I don't have asf's, only mice but was considering switching if I could find some. Are they that nasty of chewers? My feeders are in the room my cat hangs out in so the few times mice have escaped due to my error, she gets a snack. Worst case scenerio I have 6 mouse eating ferrets to let loose on them!

did you get the last one??? And what a waste of asf's i hope you will freeze them or something!!!

heck use them all for crab bait, they won't care it free fod for them, I personal don't blame with some of the chemicals that get put down now a days. my few escapes are kept int the snake rom and are alway found within anhour ( I don't have chemical outside PAM in e room) the only asf that got loos and didn't find was found 3 days after it died by my het pied that got out an hour or so while cleaning cages he was hiding right above th corpse looking up at me as I slide the cage out like her theat nasty smaell dad now clean it up..
