That doesnt always happen, sometimes you will only get five babys, or they kill them before they reach adult hood.

Mice do stink, however you can prevent the stink if you look up ways to do it. Mice may grow to small, but it takes MONTHS for an asf to get to its full size. Thats the only reason why I stoped breeding them, they are great do not get me wrong, but I did not have the time or space to wait months to feed my adult snakes.
