ASF will this ever pan out???

[Bogertophis]

I cannot speak for ASF's as I've never worked with them, but I've raised rats, mice & hamsters for several decades, & sometimes when rodents in general kill-eat their
babies is when they don't feel they can feed them adequately...this happens usually with older females on their "last litters" but can also occur with new inexperienced
moms. Sometimes they need privacy, & the optimum group size varies by kinds of rodents: if I understand correctly you have a group of 1:3? That might be too many
females together. Also, wheels in the cages for breeding rodents is typically a no-no: again, I can't speak for ASF, but with all other rodents, they get addicted to running
in the wheels, so even with babies trying to nurse & getting flung off & injured, the mom's will run in the wheels. Some mom's will fight over possession of the babies,
to the point of injuring the babies, & then when blood is drawn, they become dinner. So I don't know how closely you've been watching these ASFs, & I can't speak for
their diet, but just some ideas. I've heard they're the hardest rodents to raise but there must be some ppl around who know the secrets? If (?) it's privacy they need, try taping up paper on the outsides of the glass on most or all sides...I know I wouldn't want to live in a glass house either.
