    ASF Rat bins

    My feed bill is starting to get very big each month and the pet store I buy my rats from cant keep up with my weekly rat feedings. I feed multiple rat pups but alot of times they only have mice and I hate feeding mice. Anyways I guess not of that really matters.
    I want to breed ASF rats and I have 2 bins for my normal rats now can ASF be pt in the same sterilite bins? I can never find any that are completely smooth on the bottom they always have some sort of raised area. Are they gonna chew on and I need something else or do they usually leave it alone?
    In the end, we will all die alone

    I've used sterilite 110qt tubs for over a year with no problems.

    You can also use the 56 or 58qt tubs with no problems.

    If you throw in a wheel with them it knocks out all the chewing.

    Haha, Ive had my normal rats for months and always wondered why my male chews on everything but the female chews on nothing. She runs, he doesnt. Well thats what I wanted to know. Thanks

    I have mine in a 70qt and so far no problems (only been a few days though). Throw in a few pieces of wood that will keep them occupied as well.
