is Raising feeder mice for you?

[Snake lover 3-25]

so i went into my garage a few hrs ago and saw what looked to be a small bird hopping across the floor well it was a little mouse..... it was JUST that color SOOOO cute the last one that made it's way into my garage raced out from under a board and got very unplesently stopmed on by my dad..... i opened the garage door and let him out he was too cute to risk maybe now he'll find a better home in a place where no size 13 feet walk

Great job Shanley

Here is a picture I took last night.

The brown mouse is a sister to those pinks, and she is NOT feeding them, she is too young, not even making any milk.

This little girl is "babysitting" while mom is eating.

I saw this and had to get my camera out.

my older female is doing that with the new mice i got a few days ago, she huddles over top of all 3 and takes care of them

Snake food or otherwise, these little critters are amazing to observe.

It's things like this that keep me breeding them.

That is so sweet how she is protecting them.

I still cannot bring myself to harming the pinks, so I always keep hundreds of them in the freezer (purchased that way)

Heck we are off to the pet store today to deliver a batch for the pet trade......

The store credits come in handy

Kevin, try pet hobbyist dot com. (The mother site of Kingsnake)

They have a whole forum dedicated to mice only, not as chatty as we are here, And it may be best if you say nothing about snakes, you will be talking with folks who love mice as pets.

Care is super easy, just make sure the food dish stays full, and the water bottle never runs dry.

The mice threads here are full of information as well

Wayne, my dad does that for the litter while the moms are out eating. He's incredibly devoted for a male! :O
When I uncover the babies to handle the silver one, he pulls all the bedding back onto them. XD
