Bad ASF moms

I have been raising ASFs for 2 years. Use racks in my garage during the warm months and raise a ton to feed, sell, and freeze for later.

When it gets cold I save some future breeders in a small 4 tub rack and some 10 gallons in my snakeroom.

This winter I have been having a problem with the females neglecting their babies, all but one litter has resulted in 100% mortality. I really wanted to save the one surviving litter for future breeding but I have 2 young ball pythons that still refuse F/T so they have been fed.

Anyone else have this problem? Any suggestions?

I use good feed and have tried separating the pregnant females but nothing is working and I am getting pissed at these lousy moms.

Thanks
