Re: Mice: Day one to Thirty
Your welcome! Unless you see them in person and how they are progressing in movement, the pictures would pretty much be the same. I'm glad i did this, now i can keep tract on how long until my new pinks will get hair.
Re: Mice: Day one to Thirty
I think were around day 20-25 and they are already sexually matured( Males have all of their niblets)
About food, two months ago i had 20 something baby's to raise, and had them on a pet store diet. This threads batch were on a dog food diet. They have grown three times as fast on the dog food then the pet store diet, and i have not had any die offs. It sort of surprised me by how big they got so soon!
Im working on the slide show as well today
Re: Mice: Day one to Thirty
so how's that slide show going?
Re: Mice: Day one to Thirty
I can tell you why the ones on dog food grew faster: Because they were getting actual nutrition!
Pet store foods, with the exception of Mazuri and possibly one other, are CRAP. They are mostly fillers and seeds, which are things rodents do not need. Once I switched my rodents over to Becky's mix with a few adjustments for mice, they all are doing splendidly!
Re: Mice: Day one to Thirty
Today I fed off the last one of these. I had kept one back for breeding because of her size, and later she had a litter, ate it, which I knew was normal for her first litter. Around comes the second litter two days ago, this time she eats most of them and abandons the rest:mad: So yesterday she was made into Lessers first prekilled mouse!
