congrats!

I've got babies. :banana: Not sure how many yet.

Congrats! :)

It's been six hours since I first noticed the babies and she only has three.:weirdface Surely she isn't done. I thought ASFs were known for their large litters. Maybe she's pacing herself.

if its her first litter thats not an uncommon thing
the 2 females of mine gave birth for the first time one had 4 and the other had 5 and they were huge she had a golfball size belly

Now I'm down to two babies. One of the adults, not sure which one, killed one of the babies for no apparent reason. :confused:

First time jitters.

Mine are in tanks, I taped paper to the outside, to give a feel of more privacy. I don't know if this will make a diffence, may be worth a try.

i might try the paper thing because i was down to 2 from the 2nd preggo and then 1 died for reasons i dont know and then the mom just stopped caring for the other one and it died
Good luck on the second litter!

They killed the remaining two babies. :confused:

Was the male the father of the babies? I've heard that they will kill litters that are not theirs.

Yes he was the father. I bought the entire colony at the Columbia, SC show last month. I got the male from one vendor and the females from another. They were all young (and virgins) and got along well together.... I guess it was just first time jitters. Now the other two females appear to be bred as well. Maybe they will do better.
