frozen asf ???

geckoejon Mar 15, 2012 04:33 PM

hello, i have heard that bp's more often than not prefer african soft fur rats if they are being reluctant to eat.

has anyone tried regular f/t compared to asf? do they still prefer the asf even if they are f/t?

i have never tried soft furs myself. i'm thinking about getting a couple to try and kick start a couple females that have been off for a couple weeks. i'm not worried. i would like to keep them eating if possible though.

i don't know of anyone locally so i would have to make a trip out of town to get some. i'm not set up with racks anymore. just curious if i could get the same results with f/t, so i could stock the freezer thanks...

i have never tried frozen thaw asf's but if you happen to be in michigan i breed asf's and have plenty to spare.
