Question

I got 3 female mice about a week ago. any advice?

Answer 1

It's true mice are very shy when coming in contact with humans they are also very fast animals and not to be handled to much. Because there are three they should be a little more social with you but I suggest just making a really cool cage for them with see through tubes for you to watch and enjoy your mice. Everything else is simple feed them give them fresh water and cleaning the cage once a week. It is also true that mice do smell worse then dwarf hamsters I have had both, but if you keep the cage clean it wont be to bad. When you clean the cage each week take the cage apart put it to soak in hot water with a bit of bleach 1/10 bleach is good or less you don't need much and this will disinfect and clean thoroughly. Give them chew toys as their teeth continue to grow throughout their life and provide several running wheels as they will fight over just one. And basically that is it, just be very delicate to your little babes and treat them right that is the best thing you can do.

Answer 2

THEY SMELL HORRIBLE. i gave them back after 2 or 3 months. my mom couldnt take it so i got to rats :D.  ummm they drink a lot and eat a llllot and mine NEVER wanted to leave the cage like i left the door open and left for a half hour and they were still in the cage. same with my friend. no need to worry but if you have a dog or cat then you should be worried.
