PS, I'm gonna be needing frozen jumbo rats here soon, think you can put some aside for me in time for the Omaha show? I don't think I'm going to make it to the spring Des Moines show as much as I would like to.

Not sure what kind it is. Maybe you can tell me. All I know is that he said in that text "Im going to be needing a lot of mice"

Man I am just doing it the laziest way I can!
When I checked last night one of my females was giving birth so I will get a count today. I also have three more in line to drop soon.
I think I had a female give birth prematurely yesterday. I found quite a bit of blood in the nest area that's in general population. I did a mouse count and the were all there. I also checked feet, tails and testicles and none have been chewed. I also found a mouse that has no eyes in my colony.

Lazy or not, it seemed like a good solution for him.

Thats possible and that litter mightve been dinner before you got a chance to check it out. Thats especially possible with mice.
... anyway, Im off to go clean rodent tubs and cages. Bbiab.

Re: how my mice roll
^^^^^^^^
I know they could've been mouse kibble but none of my females were big enough to give birth...... at least that I noticed. I am thinking about a ankle band or ear tag system if I keep doing my mice this way. I found a guy selling a rack that's completely set up for about forty mouse bins. It has food over head food hoppers and auto water system. He wants 150 for everything. When I move I may go that route.
As for the female in labor last night, she had 12 pinkies.

Re: how my mice roll
So one of my females is a confirmed canibal and is being culled out tonight, she is now guilty of eating 2 of her own litters AND killing one of the other colony females (not new to the colony or anything)
Luckily I have replacements ready, they were about to be culled, but now they will form the new colony!!

Re: how my mice roll
I was talking about the rack system. I have no clue about the leg banding. Sorry.
