That would be a bad idea. Although, now that you mention it, you probably could shot one out of a cannon. Of course it would be cruel and I would never do it, but somebody might.

Oh wow, I hadn't even considered that.. I'll just keep the reservoir small and add water to it daily. I already check them each day anyway so that won't be a problem.

ALRIGHTTT? You folks have convinced me. After the holidays I am going to start a colony. Any ideas on rats? Are they as easy as mice to raise? (Same questions as mice just headed towards rats for the ball pythons) Thanks again everyone (although my youngest daughter-14 years old- will not agree).

It makes me wonder if they are competing for my business,I do make quite large orders so maybe they both want my business.I did pay extra for overnight but not that bad to me.

Mice are just like people. The females can be viscous. If you are going to put a breeding group together it is best to buy weanlings that are not yet sexually mature. Get one male and 2 or 3 females and let the grow up together. Then they will become a family and be fine. If you put a mature male in with a mature female, she often will not except him and may kill him.

Are the water bottles inside their enclosure? All rodents are prone to chewing, that is how they keep their incisors from over growing. Only suggestion I can think of is to remove make sure the stopper, or screw on spout) is protected by having the water bottle on the outside of their enclosure. That can be difficult if you are using glass aquariums to house your ASF's. Lab boxes might be a ...

When we raised mice I found the best way to keep odor down was to use wood stove pellets as bedding... a very thin layer! As they soil it, it turns to sawdust. It's cheap and easy and worked great for us. Sorry I can't help with your question about keeping them in the garage.

The male could be a dud. I'd start over with a new harem. Get them young and introduce them together before they are actually mature enough to breed. Then let nature take it course.

Lizards carry parasites, so they aren't a good long-term solution. Have you tried scenting with lizard shed, or lizard skin? Like actually attaching it to the pink/fuzzy? Or letting the pink/fuzzy sit in a bag of lizard to REALLY soak up the scent?

I could not find a clear answer either. I again looked at some online bedding studies and several of them had results clearly supported the groups doing the study. There seems to be several studies saying that cedar alters liver enzymes, but no clear cut info as to actual practical consequences. If you do a casual internet search you will see numerous rodent type chat boards with posts ...
