    ASF Success
    Soooo I bought a colony a month ago of 1.2 ASFs, and yesterday I got my first litter from one of them. She gave birth to 11 ugly little pink things, and as a first time mother I understand that is pretty awesome to get out of her.

    The other female is currently pregnant and set to pop, and they are both nursing and caring for the newborns. The male was seen attempting to hump the freshly non pregnant female and has apparently been banished to the other corner, because he just sits there all day except when hes on the wheel.

    So yeah...just wanted to share my tale. Pics tomorrow if theyre up for it!

    Thanks! I started breeding them primarily to keep my hatchling fed, since she eats more often than my adults
    Doesnt help that your spider girl and a couple other snakeys laugh at me when I show up with F/T either. =P

    Not sure why, but none of my ball pythons will take f/t. They all do great on live, but won't think twice about f/t...

    Yeah Ive got 4 that wont take F/T and one that wont take anything at all for 2 months now. Shes at 1300+gms and is supposed to be gettin ready for November but shes killing me. Fortunately the spider will eat anything in front of her as long as it is live so its all good, I can foot the bill for another month until my ASFs get to size.
