I use to bread both rats and ASF and I would never breed ASF again
Pros for ASF
1. Ball pythons love these
Cons for ASF
1. They are escape artists
2. They are mean little things
3. They take to long to get to feeding size
4. I had two balls that would not go back to normal rats after having ASF
5. They cost too much money
6. Sometimes they are hard to find
