well i still new at this but a new problem has formed. i got 2 litters of babies that were born and raised together. the 2 mothers and the father were all kept together untill one of the mothers was about to give birth again. then all the adults were seperated from the babies.
i had 18 babies at that time. now here and there they eat one. im down to 12 and now all but one of them has their tails chewed on. some are pretty bad. what the hell is going on? could just one mouse be doing all this damage? i noticed only one mouse with a tail that hasnt been chomped on. so i threw him in his own setup a few mons ago just to see what that hells going on.
they have plenty of protein in their diet. they eat blocks, hog grower, crackers, peanut butter at times, and oatmeal. also the occasional stale cookie.
i havent had this problem with my other 2 or 3 litters. could it be just one psychotic cannibal? every single mouse has has his tail chomped on some are missing quite a bit of length.....its frusterating any ideas?
