I need some help with ASF handling and overall how to stop them from turning into human devouring pests. Now we have owned them before and we had a fantastic set up, toys and all that jazz. We handled them everyday and while our male wasn't a biter our females were monsters. Eventually we had to wear gloves. I have found a decent breeder not far from us who claims his are tame (well see). Besides trying for less aggressive lines how can we live peacefully with Natal rats? Are there certain ways to hold your hands, pick them and to move around them? We moved slow and gently yet it wasn't enough. :C
We really want to try this again but if it ends out like last time I'm in the dog house.![]()
