My shed is now totally insulated and my mice seem to be doing okay, they are active and eating and drinking well (LOTS!)
I have been the same as Sarah, feeding more and cleaning out a little less... and when the meece have been making decent nests I have been cleaning around them to not disturb the warm too much.
I don't know if it really makes much of a difference, but my mice have been getting LOTS of oats in thier everyday feed (oats are 'warming' i've been told) and most of my breeding females are pregnant or nursing, cos it raises the body temp.
