asf's stink as much as any other rodent if you don't clean them.
I kept asf's on kiln dried pine and cleaned them once a week and trust me at the 7 day mark they stink HORRIBLE.
My experience with asf's
Pro's
Asf's are like crack to many ball pythons
Cons
Asf's are like crack to many ball pythons
Asf's make it very difficult to sell snakes should you want to
Asf's are slow growers
Asf's like to kill their male, making it difficult to keep groups viable
Asf's are not big enough for full sized adult females without offering multiple meals weekly.
In general, rats rule![]()
