How much money does it take to run a baby store for one year?
There are too many variables to get a definitive answer to that kind of question. For instance, how large will the store be? This will determine how much you'll pay for lease/rent. Also, what items will you be selling in the store? How many people will you be hiring? Will you be advertising? What will you need to equip the store itself (shelves, racks, tables, etc.), or will you be operating in a place that was already a store and has some or all of that? There are also taxes, insurance and I'm sure a few things I might have overlooked. All these would be part of what it costs to run the store.

What kind of formula do you eyedropper feed to baby mice?
Well, what I did was take some Cheerios and let them soak in water for two days. I then let my little babies lick it up. They're only a week old.
I feed them kitten formula from Wal-mart or a pet store. If you don't have that, I successfully kept them alive for a couple of days with a mixture of milk, vegetable oil (dash) and honey (two dashes). I soaked a piece of paper towel in it and they would suck on the towel. Now, I am feeding them the formula with an eyedropper. They will lick it off my hand and also suck the milk from a washcloth. If you get the mice wet with the milk while you are feeding them, clean them off with a Q-tip dipped in warm water. Simulate their mother licking them. Then be sure to dry them off as well as possible with a tissue.
