Mouse with sniffles...help

pinatamonkey Sep 23, 2003 03:43 PM

One of my females seems to have some sort of respiratory problem (sniffles, sneezing). What should I do with her and is it likely that it will pass on to the rest of them?

Hi Audri

I don't know if you've done a search of the feeder forum... you'll find lots of good advice and suggestions from many of the folks here who deal with the same sorts of things. Most suggest feeding or killing off any/all rodents that show signs of illness. I've always bred small scale (with limited resources for healthy replacement stock) and have had some success with treating illnesses, so I'm going to put a link here to a response I made to another similar question a little while back. Also, feel free to email me off-list if you want.

Good luck!
