an air compressor 10-15psi, but do not ever exceed 25psi, it'll make a mess.
Seriously, I would look at just using healthy mice, avoid pet store mice as they are often scrawny and underfed. If the mice are healthy they shouldn't need to be gutloaded.

Same as you would crickets or anything else, feed them healthy food that is beneficial to your monitor ahead of time then feast.
