I am thinking about breeding my own feeders come spring/summer, but I'd like to use the next few months to decide between mice, rats, and ASFs, and also figure out how many I need on rotation and basically learn as much as I can before having to take care of the things...

So far, I've decided against mice just for the simple reason that I have BPs that are going to outgrow mice and I'd rather not feed multiples if at all possible. That leaves me between Rats and ASFs....ASFs seem really simple and apparently ball pythons love them. However, I may be breeding sometime in the near future, and if I have to sell off or trade a couple balls, there is the concern that they won't eat for their new owners because ASFs have become their food of choice.

But with ASFs being so new to the game, is this just another wives tale that will prove to be untrue in the near future, or do bps truly get addicted to them? Or is this similar to the fact that some balls only eat mice and some balls will only eat rats...meaning it's all individual and some balls will be picky eaters while others will eat anything?

And in case you don't feel like reading that:

Do ball pythons really become "addicted" to ASFs?
