Hey all-
I checked on the mece (mice) today and well I saw something out of place. The male was sleeping outside of the wooden hide under the wheel. Which i no big thing because the male and female would sleep together under the wheel before I got the hide. The only thing was that the female was in the hide. Both were snoozing soundly. It just seemed odd that the male was not sleeping with the female.
When I checked on the female her eyes were open, so I know i woke her up but she just looked at me and didn't do anything. She seems kinda plump but I can't be so sure. There body lenght is about 2 inches not including the tail. The tail adds another inch. I know mice will breed when they are sexually mature and that she maybe small, but when I should the pictures can someone tell me if she maybe preggers?
Once both of them were up and aware I was there, I picked up the female to check to see if there was a sperm plug inside her. i know it may have fallen out, but I still checked. When I did I could clearly make out her nipples.
Could her sending the male from the nest, her plumpness, and her nipples showing well be signs of a pregency? It's just so hard believing that something only a few inches big could carry a few babies...
Now onto the pics....sorry for the quality but she doesn't like me very much and is determined to run away if held.
