What an interesting idea, Gib. When do you foster them over to the regular rat female? Does she need to be lactating? I assume you wouldn't want any of her own litter in there with the fostered ASF's. What age for the ASF's for foster works best? Can it just be an old retired female that sort of just acts as an "auntie" rat to them or do you need that mothering bond with a nursing female?

Okay can you tell yet I'm a bit excited about this idea!
