Highest temp rats can withstand?

What about mice? What's the lowest temp they can withstand and still produce litters?
I have 1.3 mice in a shed, temps are between ~50 degrees at night and ~65 during the day.
Are these ok? or do you guys think I need to raise the temps?

Thanks.



sorry for hijacking the thread :oops:

I keep my rodents at room temp of 80 and sometimes up to 85 in summer. The rats never decreased production but my mice did.

I always have fan on moving air around so they have some means to feel like its cooling them down. I wouldnt do anything higher as their water will not help keep them cool it hot temps.


Ive seen colonies die from one day in the heat as they slammed all the water and just dehydrated
