    Thanks guys. Any websites that would help explain the process would be great also. I cant seam to find any good ones that are easy to follow or understand.
    If breeding mice you will want a rack type setup with good ventilation. Tanks make Mice stink way faster.

    I currently breed 20 groups of 3.6 and i never take out the males ever. This produces me 500 or so mice monthly. Be sure if you over produce you have a steady buyer for the extras.

    Females usually dont get pregnant till thier 6-8 weeks old, but males will start mating at 4 weeks old if they were ready.
