The rtbs are my friends and only staying till he either finds a home for himself where he can have them again or a new permanent home for them. For that reason I don't mind buying them rats if need be. My picky eater refuses rats. I got her to take 2 when I first switched to rats and since then nothing. I tried offering rats after she goes off feed for about 2-3 weeks at shedding time and she refuses. I have tried putting the rat into a tank with mouse bedding and everything else I could think of still nothing. I even make sure they are the right color white as possible. It's hard to get rat pups here unless they are about a month old so trying smaller pups is a challenge. I'm open to suggestions on getting her to switch over.

I don't mind breeding the rats for everyone. My friend knows someone who breeds asf locally which is why I was asking about them. On the topic of breeding mice.... I've done it in the past with minimal aggression, and they were all very good mothers. Thanks for the in input much appreciated!
