    Re: Do you keep your rats and mice in the same room?

    I just don't know if my mice will breed with the smell of rats and noises they tend to make. But keeping mice downstairs is killing me! The smell over powers into my room and it ticks me off.

    They will you'd be surprise what they can get used too.

    I had them in the same rack at one point with no issue. Planning on doing it again at some point if I get a ARS rack.

    My mice average 13 to 16 babies per litter and ZERO cannibalism.

    I have bred both since 2007 and produce a few thousand feeders each year. (That means there is a smell)
