    Got some ASF's

    Well I traded some xbox games for 2 baby ball pythons and the guy asked if I wanted any ASF's I said sure I'd like to try them out. Ended up with 2.3.0, pretty young ones. I plan on breeding them and was wondering if I need to split them up or can I just put all the 5 of them into a spare 30 gallon aquarium I have? The males were from the same litter and the females were from a different one, but they were raised together and show no hostility towards each other. Also heres a pic.

    When they get sexually mature, one of the males will become dominant and will start beating up on the other one - you'll probably want to feed the beat up one off.

    Re: Got some ASF's

    honestly i have had better luck with 1.2 than 1.3 or 1.4 cause i get far less tramples and fights. id also do 1.1 and 1.2 but either way congrats on getting asfs and new ball pythons

    Re: Got some ASF's

    Thank you every one. I'll just make a devised for the aquarium I have and split them up 1.2 and 1.1. I'll also be sure to post pics of the two new balls and when I get everything for the ASF setup completely. Do honestly have I say these little rats were a spur of the moment deal.

    Re: Got some ASF's

    Here are the two balls i got in that trade. He said they were both female. I sexed them and appeared both female. But I wouldn't trust my ability of sexing so I'll probably take them to a reptile expo in march and see if some one could help me out.
