    Stinky little mice...

    Why is it that a mouse is only in my tank for 2 minutes, yet, afterwards, my ENTIRE tank smells like mice for days???

    A little of both, LOL! Just wondering if anyone has the same experience. They don't even get a chance to pee or poop.

    Actually mice and rats don't have control over their bladders, so they are always going.

    Yea because they use it as a trail to follow back and forth when foraging. thats how they train them in movies to go to a point, have they walk it a bunch of times then they go it on their own.

    I acctually just fed 2 rats to my guys and one had normal feces, and one's stank to high heaven. it was gross.

    I think mice can convert air to poop. You could probably not feed that thing for a couple days and it will still be pooping all day.

    It's amazing the amount of food intake vs poop on my mice
