mice feeder breeding

[Black_Zodiac]

Hypothetically speaking: If I were to breed my own feeder mice from a good stock, what would be the best/ most secure container to keep them in?

At the moment, I have an enclosure that is being home-made similiar in style to this one.....http://www.cagesbydesign.com/cages/specials_reptile.asp (R1 on this website.) The only differences being, my own design in regards to furnishings and the enclosure itself will be 100% glass with the surrounding wood as extra support/decoration features. Underneath the enclosure itself, will be a larger storage cabinet area with 3 pairs of doors, with at least one to two shelves (depending on the size of the mice container that I'll need to use). On both sides of the cabinet itself there will be ventilation slits (simliar to those used by elctrical heating ducts) so there won't be a risk of suffocating the mice once they are inside.

So what would be the best container(s) to use without running the risk of having mice running around inside the cabinet?

Check out the feeders forum. Lots of threads about different mouse/rat breeding containers. Just started raising ratties myself. LOTS of helpful tips there. Enjoy!

Yeppers, Matt. Red shirts were Security, Medical were blue uniforms, and the Command was Tan/Beige-ish...It was inevitable that during the "classic" STs, one or sometimes 2 or 3 always got off'd somehow.


*BAG* Not a "fanatic" but I do like my ST and QL!!! Oooops! Do I need a thumb here???

Scott Bakula is MY main sexy man!!! I've never had the chance to see the "Enterprise" episodes, loved ST:C aaaand ST:TNG, but I'll try to get the DVDs eventually. DS9 wasn't bad. Voyager was so-so.

Now I KNOW I definitely need the thumb! Sorry BZ!!!!!!
