hi my mice have given birth to 12 pinkies and was wondering how long until they reach adult size thankx corns are cool :flames:
 
hi, i would like to start breeding my own mice. i would e grateful if you could help answer these few questions.

first i would like to ask how long the gestation period is for a mouse?

next i would like to ask how old they have to be to breed?

finally i would like to ask on average how many babies are in a litter?

thanks for any help :cheers:
 
I recently got some mice to breed with and my one female just had a litter of THIRTEEN Babies!!!! That's a heck of a big litter I am told! I understand the average is around 8 per litter.

The boys have testicles hanging out by their tails and the girls don't.
Easy.

lol. this made me laugh. apparently you cant see them if the mouse isnt relaxed or if it is young. i thought the same at first. :grin01:
 
Well then all the boys at work must be relaxed :grin01:
But untill their testicles drop they're too young to be taken away and shouldn't need to be sexed at that point anyways... :shrugs:

realy? thanks for this information. i still have some research to do but i understand that you should wean them at 25 - 30 days. is this right?
 
Well the whole point of taking them away once their testicles drop is so they don't mate back to the mom or the sisters.
And yes that is correct.
