It's already been stated that this system will work with mice, you just have to adjust the rotation times and keep in mind that mice have a shorter period where they can viably (not to mention safely!) breed. I've personally kept a very small colony of mice before so the only thing I want to add is this; be careful reintroducing the female mice to the male during rotation. Mice are highly territorial and do not react well to newcomers entering a cage that smells like them (the resident mouse). I always suggest fully cleaning the tank/cage and rearranging all the objects kept in the tank afterwards when introducing mice to the same tank/cage (yes, even if they have met before!). I had one female that would pick a fight with her sisters every time I reintroduced them, even though she had been raised with them.

The set of 12 system would work perfectly to feed my group of snakes right now. I'm looking to build a rack soon and try and get this going, but I'm kind of stuck on what a good tub to use is. It seems like most of the standard breeding tubs are for housing 4+ breeders in a bin, and that seems like a huge waste for this setup.

Yeesh. Didn't know a stickied thread was considered a necrobump. If y'all don't want people posting in the threads at the top of the board perhaps you guys should just lock them?
