I like them as well. My animals will eat anything so they don't care what I put in at the end of the tongs. I like the rats though as they are smaller than the average regular rat. A small ASF is about the same size as an adult breeder mouse. The difference is that the rat is at his peak of health, young, on regular food and not aged like the mice are. A weaned ASF is the same as a rat pup in size, but it is weaned, so no milk in their system and regular bones. A lot of snakes that won't eat anything else, will eat those. I almost always try them out on new animals that I receive, especially if they are w/c imports. I've never had one refused unless the animal is in blue and isn't going to eat anything anyway.
