rotate the males or the females?

[Freakzter]

Because I am not a fan of back to back breeding which I have found affected the size of the litters and growth rate of the babies, I rotate my animals.

All males rotate between 3 tubs (containing 3 females each) and they spend 2 weeks in each tubs.

is this correct?




unfortunately your system seems geared towards producing pinkies. it has the male return to the cage before the pups are fully weaned, I need adult mice.


would you use this same system for rats? I have those too and do not need them full grown.

thanks for any input.
