They will be very happy to eat a peanut! Unfortunately it is a bad idea to feed peanuts to pet mice (or even wild mice) as they are very fatty, and mice will get super fat very quickly on a diet of peanuts. This will probably lead to early death. Mice have similar nutritional requirements to humans, and like humans they suffer ill health with too much salt, sugar or fat. The only exceptions are dairy and citrus fruit, which they should not eat (so no cheese!). If you consider that a mouse stomach is about the size of your little fingernail, a peanut would fill that very easily. Can you imagine the size of the peanut we would have to eat to match that? I doubt it would be good for you!
