They can, just sometimes better not to. Mice are very small & flexible. Wire cages need to have very small bar spacing - 1.5 cm or less - to avoid them getting out.

Where should your pet mice live?

Depending on how many mice there are (obviously the more mice, the more room needed) an old aquarium would be good but you may want to add more ventilation. Also a bin cage is really good. (which is what i use for my mouse) research ''bin cages'' and it will show you what they are, and how to make them. Have fun with your mice/mouse!

Do Egyptian spiny mice get along with field mice?

No, generally diffrent types of mice do not go good together, especially if they are not baby mice. They would probably fight and theres a 50/50 chance they could kill each other. I would strongly recommend keeping them in separate cages, but the cages could be right next to each other. Hope I helped!
