ASF Care, Breed, Size?
So, I after hearing the ASF term over and over, I finally looked it up, and was quite surprised. I noticed that people like to breed these more than traditional mice or rats, mostly because of less smell. I wanted to make sure this is a valid claim, as I will probably breed my own feeders sometime soon. Thursday was the first day my bp Pandora took two adult mice, and seems to have no problem, I am going to check her over today. I was worried about breeding rats because they would get too big, but it seems like ASF's are kind of in the middle as far as size goes.
Basically, what I am asking is--how big are ASF's in comparison to mice/rats--adulthood and growing up stages, and what benefits are there to ASF's over mice/rats (smell, less demanding husbandry etc)
Thanks
