I got up early this morning and set off at 7:30 am to go to Warwickshire to pick up 36 + mice from a mousery that was closing down. I got home and I noticed the breeder I got them off was a back to back breeder, so I split up the 12 babies from their mom and dad, put dad on his own, and Mom is already heavly pregant again due to pop very soon
Poor girl, There was another female who is a self black and she was in with them aswell so she might be pregnant, There was a group of 6 bucks and I have not split them up I have put them into a bigger tub as they are happy living together. I put all the non pregnant does together in a bigger box aswell even though I would keep a eye on them over the next 2 weeks, and then put the pregnant does in a box of their own so they can make a nest and have their babies in peace without being mated by the buck 15 hours after labour. There was 2 self black does in with a broken fawn longhaired satin buck who I split up, Kept the 2 does together, the one doe is from show lines and has been named Black beauty as she is a black beauty, so this pair could be pregnant. There is also a siamese doe who is pregnant but looks a little small to me so I don't think she will make it. Dayna come over today and collected some females aswell thanks Dayna you helped out alot
