    And you have no problem with competition and eating each other?

    How many in each tub of each sex?

    I would love to know what your procedure is...

    Unless they ate the whole body, ive never dealt with canablism. Not sure about competition, if they are then no ones dieing

    How many in each tub of each sex?

    I counted those pinkys in my final count, so I really have around 70 weanlings and adults. With the breeders, i have one great stud that gets the job done quick so I switch him out( carefully) between tubs after alot of them get pregnant, but right now hes staying in the pregnant tub because im trying a new male in the top one to see if he is any good.

    I would love to know what your procedure is...

    Procedure procedure procedure.... To tell you the truth, not a good one:D Im not all the careful and for some reason it has worked out. I clean out the tubs once every two weeks( sooner sometimes) and feed every day, water if I need to. Once the pinks turn to weaners I stick them in the feeder tub, and have never had a problem with the old weans fighting with the noobs. So far in the past month ive only have five die offs, three died of old age( I put one down because of how bad it looked, all my breeders were adults when i got them so who knows how old they are, more than likely retired breeders already) and the rest were because of me. one jumped out of my hand as I was sticking her in the breeder tub because she was of size and I liked her( was VERY upset about her dieing) and she fell about 13 feet and died an hour later, and the other one escaped I guess and i found it dead behind the feeder tub.

    If I left anything out that you would like feel free to ask, Ive got a bad headacke so escuse the spelling!:)

    didnt answer that one right, the breeder tubs old 1.6-9

    All sexes in the feeder tote, and so far no one has gotten pregnant, Once feeding day comes around I try to give lesser 2 or three males depending on their size.

    i have 1.7 in a few 10 gallon tanks and they havent ate eachother. (albinos)

    i also have a 20l that has like 6.18 plus about 15 weeners still no problem eating (fancy mice)

    i think its more of diet and water.
