I chose some adult mice from a local pet shop (not a single store in this city had rats fuzzy to weanling the day I went buying) and got 10, frozen, since the guy was offering a discount. I figured since they were just mice I could try and feed Donuts 2 every five days or something like that until someone in town got weanlings. But as soon as I opened the bag, I was really unpleasantly surprised by the smell. I know mice don't exactly smell great when they're dead but these were pretty funky. It makes me not even want to feed her them just because I am so off-put by them! Also, there are woodchips in the bag with them which I guess is fine, mice don't take baths before they go get eaten by snakes in the wild, but it made me even less comfortable using them. I guess I'm stuck on the human idea that food should be rinsed and free of dirt /:
So TD;LR- The mice I got smell unusually bad. Should I give them to my BP or just throw them out?![]()
