Rodents

All rodents have one upper jaw and one lower jaw set of two continuously growing front teeth that must be worn down by gnawing. The order's smallest members are the 2.4 inch/6 centimeter African pygmy mouse and Baluchistan pygmy jerboa. Questions typically refer to the order's laboratory contributions to scientific advances, important representatives, geographic ranges, and environmental roles in seed dispersion and soil food web life.

Is it possible to breed deer mice and fancy mice?

Yes!

I caught a deer mouse in my apartment and opting against letting it die slowly and painfully on a mouse sticky bait; I carefully found a way to pull it off and placed it in a 2.5 gallon aquarium. (* Catchmaster Brand mouse sticky pads are very weak and it is easy to pull the mouse off the trap vs. other brands where the mouse will be permanently stuck! Just make sure you wear vinyl gloves to protect your hands and fingers from a potential bite (and vinyl does not stick as permanently to the glue. Also note that you will have to use "gentle force" while pulling your little critter off of the trap. PLEASE BE CAREFUL NOT TO HURT IT!).

In any case, I fed it extremely well for a couple of days and he always took note to run and hide under the protective shelter that I had created for him--Okay Yes, I was plotting to keep it if I caught it! I even went to the pet store and brought the fancy mouse mix so that it would never want to seek the wild again. Yeah right! While attempting to clean his cage my little friend Sir Pennington Copperbottom jumped out and scurried away with the speed of greased lightning! My husband said it was the name I gave him. I was broken hearted plus "broken wallet-ed" because of all the high-grade fancy stuff I had just purchased (mouse dust bath included). SOOO instead of letting all that good stuff goes to waste I went to the pet store and purchased a fancy mouse that kind of reminded me of Sir CP. It was a female. Her name is Lady Jane Gray :)

I guess you're wondering where this is going... well a day after Lady JG was settled in her cage, who got caught on the same sticky pad...? Well, I think it was Sir PC because he was able to do the same full back flips that the original Sir CP was doing previously. I have had mice, hamsters, gerbils, and even a rat so I understood that as long at it wasn't two males I should be fine with them getting along. I was less concerned with breeding because for the life of me I was certain that two different breeds of mice would not mate. Besides Lady JG was more than twice the size of Sir CP. In my mind there was no way he could climb that mountain! Well he did... and quickly! Lady JG gave birth to four babies and they seemed like such a loving and protective pair. They would groom each other and always slept nested together and never fought. Sir CP even started to appear to get used to me getting close to the aquarium and would not runa away as quickly.

Needless to say while removing soiled bedding and adding a fresh batch to one corner of the cage, Sir CP once again jumped right out of the aquarium and ran away. Funny thing was... he hesitated for a while before taking shelter behind all the wires stemming from our computer/media center then running to freedom. Hmmm....

Sorry I wrote so much... I'm a writer. Force of habit :)

Can you make a guinea pig cage by blocking off a section of your room with a board then putting some kind of bedding on the floor making sure there are no wires and such that the piggies can get to?

In my opinion it would be alot easier (and it would make your guinea pig more comfortable) if you just bought a cage for him/her. If the room is carpeted, putting just bedding on the floor is especially not a good idea. The amount of clean-up that will take is not worth it. Guinea pig's urine is suprisingly clear, so you might come home one day and not know that your guinea pig has soaked the carpet until you smell it.

Guinea pig cages aren't usually expensive, depending on the size you want. I suggest about 3x2 ft of cage size for each guinea pig, as they need space. The prices usually range from 10-70$. I got two guinea pigs and two separate large cages for only $30.

And another bad point about just the boards and such is that if you have any other pets, such as cats or dogs, they can easily climb over the edges, leaving your guinea pig as a trapped snack. There is also the chance the guinea pig could jump out.

I would suggest just going to your local pet store and buy a cage.
