African Soft Furs

This is a great thread.. I've been considering switching to ASF's from mice, and this was exactly what I was looking to find out.

Do you guys think a pair of gloves, like thin work gloves, would make handling them better or worse? I know with some reptiles (my iguanas) the gloves make biting and aggression worse...

I use a pair gardening gloves all the time. Keeps your hands much cleaners when cleaning the tubs, moving rats/mice or ASF around and gives them something to cling to vs. my skin.

Gloves all the way...I just recommend them be tight fitting as you don't have as much dexterity and control with bulky gloves so you are likely to use more pressure then necessary with them.
