    Get rid of the wheel all together there exercise will be the breeding itself. If you use a wheel they will produce less.

    Just curious, what evidence do you have of this? I find that without a wheel, I have more fights break out. I have wheels in all of my tubs, and they're breeding up a storm lol.

    I decided to just go with aspen, but they seem happy running on the wheels when they go the same direction. I got a 1.4 that came with about 20 babies (since they were still nursing), and 10 to feed off in the meantime. My troublesome feeder is suddenly eating like a pig, thanks for the help everyone!

    x2! I also find wheels to be a stress reliever for them, and helps keep skirmishes to a minimum. I know theyre just food makers for my snakes, but i like to think that keeping them occupied n happy keeps them makin babies....n i always have tons of litters

    I eventually put a wheel in with my asfs too. They're not really obsessed with it like I've seen with other people's set ups, however, I do like that they keep themselves busy running rather than trying to chew out.

    Just an update, but mine seem to REALLY like the wheel. As in four will get on there at a time and go for a group jog, and I seem to have babies coming out of my ears. I lost count at 40, and two more look ready to pop! One of them also seems to really enjoy the hanging wooden parrot swing I got them.
