Hello there!
I hope everyone here is well in the run up to Christmas
My name's Harriet and i'm a 20-year old medical student who has kept mice for the past 6 years and I'm really happy to have found this forum, I often find it quite hard to find mouse information online (definately not as easy as finding dog and cat info!). I've bred mice before and had about 6 or so litters. I recently decided to start breeding again but, sadly, my new girl (Moo) was overdue and then passed 10 stillborn babies over the course of 24 hours yesterday, with me having to help her deliver 3 of them which had become stuck. My boyfriend and I were very very upset (ourselves and for Moo) as we'd been looking forward to the babies arriving for a long time- Moo, thankfully, didn't seem to stressed by the whole event and coped very well. I've no idea why this should happen, it was her first pregnancy and I suspect that she may have been a bit too active (she's a bit of a risk taker when it comes to exploring).
Anyway, aside from that sad news, I've been lucky enough in the past to have had a pet mouse (Fatboy) who lived for over 3 years and became something of a legend amongst friends and family. He was a golden longhaired and I miss him dearly.
I'm really looking forward to hearing from everyone and taking part! Thanks for taking the time to read my little intro too
