    the ASF are really hard to find where i'm from, i got lucky some guy on craigslist was selling his extra ones (breeds them for his Ball pythons) he was asking 1$ each so i got like 40+ of them (now only got like 20+)

    i've seen some people online selling them as pets for $5-$20 each.
    i wish i could help more then that, but i dont know.

    okay i'll look into the ASF because from what i've heard they have their benefits. So do you feed your (smaller rats) to your snakes live or pre killed?

    Speaking of redtails....idk if yours is a baby, but when she was how many mice did you feed her? My redtail is a little nuts....bites at everything looks a little slim (not anorexic) should I feed him more then two mice a week? (thats what i feed him now.)

    I feed it smalls...it looks like it might be able to take a weeeee bit bigger mouse but not a mouse big enough to make a difference. I'll try bigger mice tho and see where that gets me.
