Justin, pretty interesting inquiry. What are the results you’re seeing anecdotally that you think might have to do with feeding mixed gendered sexually immature mice? And do you have a hunch about the possible affects that diets high in adult male mice might have on snakes, for instance, a difference in growth, specific health problems, or possible affects on hatchling gender rates?
I've wondered about the differences in calcium levels over the lifespan of mice. It would make sense that a jumbo retired breeder female mouse would be deficient in calcium in a way that a subadult probably wouldn't.
