Hello fellow mouse & rat parents...
I am new to this group... and am unsure how active you all are and how often you
all correspond, but I did send an email yesterday which I think was today to
members in Australia which I think means this message will not get to you til
tomorrow... or something like that. I think that my night is your day and I
know that my winter is your summer. Anyway, I have some baby mice, eyes open...
cute little wee balls of fur and I was basically wondering how I might be able
to guess their age. Mice seem to nest a little more securely than my rats did
and I discovered the little things when I was sifting through the bedding in
order to clean the cage. I don't know how long they had been there or which
female mouse is the real mother. My guess is that the babies are 3 weeks, but I
really don't know. I added a picture albumn with photographs of all the babies.
What do you think?
