Posted by: polosue25 at Thu Mar 18 14:57:03 2004 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by polosue25 ] I kept regular mice and spiny mice for a long time. The regular ones-- I had one get pregnant once, and she was wired to begin with but I made the mistake of picking her up as she was in labor before realizing there was a pinkie on its way out..needless to say she killed all of them. The spiny mice I bred intentionally and though mom and dad shared a 10-gallon just fine, the babies were moved to a new cage at weaning. Then when I stopped breeding, mom got to keep 2 daughters as company and dad got a son....after months of happily living together mom killed both her (now adult) daughters. So, I know that 5 gallons looks like plenty of room and they might all squish into the same place at times, but if they want space they need to have it available. I would not keep a group in anything smaller than a 10 gallon with several places to hide to keep the stress down | ||
