    sniffles?!

    Can mice have the sniffles. I got one girl mouse that's sniffling for Anita now. I'm kinda worrying here. Anyone got any advice here on what it is, or how to fix it?

    It's probably an upper respiratory infection. Unless this mouse is a pet, i suggest culling it.

    for a pet mouse; clean out everything. make sure you dont use any wood-type bedding except aspen (but not even that because it isnt great). make sure its not damp. line the bottom with paper towels for a while, changing every day for the next week. if no improvement see a vet.

    for a breeder; its ok to breed a rat with rep. infection. it doesnt effect the snakes at all. as long as you dont mind your snakes being sick. i suggest using another mother to nurse in her place to keep the bubs from dying

    The female is sneezing very frequently. She is still active but I don't like that she's in there sick when she is being housed with two other mice. Are the chances the other mice will be infected also great or am I just over-reacting?
