Congrats Debbie! I held out on breeding mice for a long time because of the smell. My pal Charlie gave me 1.3 a couple of months ago. They actually don't seem to stink as bad as I thought they would (I do have a kick azz exhaust fan though). I now have a ton of mice and have fed off a ton. Lots of cute fancies too...

I don't handle the babies much, just to clean. I haven't had any problems yet.

Good luck with them!
