Care of Mice and Rats

Newborn mice drink milk from the mother's mammary glands until they are old enough to feed by themselves. Mice are weaned at 21 days old. When they get close to this age, they will begin to eat solid food.

Humans, dogs, cats, and other furry animals are mammals and obviously have ears.

They Live for Around 40 - 45 Years Long Maximum sadly.
Thats a big lie
They can live for as long as any other normal Humasn,As long as they don't get Cancer or any other disease caused from Excessive exposure to U.V Rays from direct sunlight.....

When a mother rejects her kitten it may be best to separate the felines because the mother may kill the kitten because of the scent of a human is on it. The mother thinks that it is no longer her baby.

Data from wild populations is not available, and will vary based on which mouse lemur species one is looking at and food availability.

It's probably best to leave it alone. If it's in your house, of course, and you want to get rid of it, you can buy a live trap, catch it, and release it a few miles from your house. (It has to be more than a mile, or it will come right back.) Don't try to make wild mice into pets, though. A mouse that hasn't been held and socialized from a very young age will probably never be truly tame.

baby mice can be held once you see that they have fur, and whatever you are keeping them in you see them out and about, if they are pink they should be left alone, always remember mice are held by the tail.

My two mice poop in their wheel every day. This is normal behaviour for mice. They are smart little creatures but they still poop in their wheel. I just wash it with hot water and mild soap, like Dawn for dishes, and rinse well and dry, then put it back.

No she would not but it is better off to let the mother deal with the pups till the pups eyes open. If you have to touch them take a towel and rub the mother down them pick the pup up with the towel. Be sure not to leave your scent on the pup or the mother will not take care of the pup and it will die.

as big as a chihuahua dog.

Its body length is 15 cm.

no a naked mole rat can't have babies with a rat

Responsibly? MIce can be bred around 3 times and must have breaks in between matings. A pair of mice can make up to 20 (but more commonly somewhere around 10) babies but the babies must wait until they are around 3 months old to breed, or the chances of complications rise. So, if you are a responsible breeder, a pair of mice could make somewhere around 50-100 mice.

Even if you are breeding mice for reptile food, you should still do research and follow these guidelines. Just dumping mice into a tub to breed and breed and breed in unsanitary conditions is unethical treatment of animals... not only that, but what goes into your mouse, goes into your snake. If you breed without considering the health of the animal and your pet eats that animal, it is not getting optimum nutrition.

Mice smell much more than rats. They smell if you don't clean their cage every few days! The animals themselves don't usually smell as they clean themselves. Also, you shouldn't do this to mice, but you can give rats bathes, but you can only give them one about once every month. Pet Stores also sell spray that you can apply to mice and/or rats that will help the smell.The oil in their fur will come off if you do.

To prepare a sleeping place for her coming babes.

Males have a strong smell, females have a lesser of smell.

yes they would because they lick them self

You can try to stimulate it by lightly rubbing its bottom with a wet paper towel.

They are the smallest primates in the world and they experience the highest predation rates among all primates. Depending on the region, some mouse lemurs exhibit torpor during the dry season, during which they sleep for several days at a time to conserve energy. During the rainy season, they can double their body weight in order to store energy for the dry season.

Usually Right before theyre eyes open or maybe after, they have smaller hairs when they are a couple days old.

i had a mouse for about 3 yrs wich is a long time... but she stunk she had to live in the garage until i did this,

clean their cage out often every 3 days should be enough

put kitty litter in the bottem or sented shavings

if it doesnt mined wich mine LOVED give it a bath its so cute just put them in a little bit of water (laundry sink) (water level should be so it can just stand but swim or they will drown:o) they love to swim and u can buy shampoo at any good pet store. this si also a good way to look ath their skin wen u dry them this is how mine died because after her bath as i wz drying her i found red spots on her (cancer)

if this all fails maybe try and keep them out of cage this will make them more social and the cage wont stink to much

hope this helps :)

NO mice can not see in the dark they use there nose and whiskers to feel and smell
Not really they are almost blind. Everything else is keen except the eyes. they use established runways so they can move very quickly and not rely on the eyes.

Mice do not have baths and they do not need one. But they do clean themselves naturally as long as you keep their cage clean they will be fine. The reason they do this is because like humans it feels good to be clean, it is also a natural instinct for them to clean themselves, they want to take care of themselves like most humans.
