tiny pinks?

staticx Jan 28, 2007 11:46 AM

i was wondering if i got a pair of mice/rats how often will i get a litter of pinks.will this idea work,you take a pregnant mouse or rat and then kill it before it gives birth and then freeze the exetremely tiny babies for sale.this would work for runt animals or for a little more nutrition for smaller animals like geckos.i want to know why you cant do this

I think Pygmy mice would be a better option. I know they come out real small. Are tiny and you can house a few in a ten gallon tank.

It would be a ridiculously stupid waste of a good breeder. Newborn pinks are pretty tiny already, if you need them smaller just cut them up.
