    Re: Something wrong...

    I've had 1.3 ASFs for at least two months and all they've done is eat and poop. NO litters! I suck at breeding rats/mice. I only have one snake besides hatchlings that won't eat f/t so I've pretty much given up on breeding rodents.

    Maybe your male isn't fertile...I would feed them off and get a new group. I first started out with a 1.3 and one female never had a litter. After 2 months I fed her off. Simple as that, no slackers around here

    Give them time. These guys take much longer to reach sexual maturity than mice or regular rats. I typically don't see litters until my females are going on 4 months old.

    You should always set up breeding group when they are in the just weined / small stage. I would get new young ones, check your food, and start over.
    Do you think I should change Food?

    I am no expert by any means, but it doesnt look that bad.

    I would just feed off what you got and get new just weined replacements. Take the time to grow them up yourself for a couple months, and you shouldn't have any issues.

    9 times out of 10 this fixes the problem.
