When I first caught her, it was a 12 day old fuzzy she was killing. Had she not been prego at that time I'd have nailed her right there.

Thankfully I had the common sense to pull her then, She probably would have killed them all off if I had not.

Ages ago when we were farming, I remember dad killing chickens for the same reason, the one that was destroying eggs was either a chicken dinner for us, or tossed (live) into the pig stalls.

The other moms have 2 litters right now, pinky and fuzzy stage, and one little "hold back" hopper that helps out with the chores.

we went to a party yesterday, and I stuffed my pockets at the veggie tray, last night the "good" mice were rewarded with fresh veggie slices that would make an Iguana jealous.

Since I have a moral issue with siblings breeding, I guess a new female will be added to the harem.

Peace,
Wayne
