First off, Dinner, my baby mouse, was living in the enclosure 24 hours before I intoduced the 2 female mice. The only reason I did introduce the female mice was to keep him company. I read that male mice can be territorial, which is why I used females. Secondly, I did not know people house mice individually, last I knew pet stores housed countless males with males and females with females, and I was pretty sure mice were community animals, hence why I didn't want Dinner to be alone. Third of all, I would have fed the females to my snake live even if Dinner was never hurt, but because they harmed him and ripped him up gives me a good reason to watch and enjoy the show. Had I really wanted to get revenge I'd give the 2 females to one of my 3 cats to play with for a while before giving them to my snake, which again, would be eating the live regardless of the situation.

Do I feel it is my fault Dinner was killed by the female mice? Of course. And I feel horrible about it. Who would have thought 2 new female mice going into a babies territory would take over and kill him? I will enjoy the show in 5 days, be happy they won't be cat toys before hand. As I have seen someone post before, if you are not willing to feed animals to your pet, you shouldn't own a snake.
