I plan to put them in my growouts, but if my breeders can eat through the 1/4" ok that is my preference.

    You would have to hang those feeders. once they eat around the sides and top they won't be able to get any food unless the ffoods able to fall so they can eat from the bottom.
    The one thing you never want to do is have breeders that struggle to get food. Asf's will eat all the babies within a hour up to a week old if food is hard for them to get too. As cute as they are they are spawns of evil lol. They will bite the hell out of you and kill there pups or any ASF you try to put in their enclosure. Im sure you have already heard this. I tried it as most of what i read ws wrong but that was not. They will kill and eat a asf that isnt theirs or that isn't a part of their colony. You must raise a pup with the mother to introduce another breeder or you can start a new colony from adding 3-4 week old pups together in a new enclosure
