Yes, some birds store food. They tuck seeds or dried berries or acorns into crevices of tree bark or under logs or stones. And they remember where it is with great accuracy!
Birds such as bluejays, chickadees, nuthatches and woodpeckers rely on this to provide food in the winter.
The shrike is famous for leaving the carcass of a grasshopper or small rodent impaled on a thorn of a hawthorn tree as temporary storage.

Is beaver a rodent marsupial or egg layers?
The beaver is a rodent. Rodents are placental mammals, and beavers are placental mammals, not marsupials, which are pouched mammals. Beavers are also not monotremes, or egg-laying mammals. The only monotremes are latches and echidnas.
What is the best way to get rid of a rodent problem?
You can try to entice them to come out and trap them. However, it all may be simpler to hire an exterminator, since if you poison them and they die inside the walls, you have a larger problem, due to the odor.

If your gerbil is not eating then it might have overgrown teeth or maybe with some gerbils if you have changed your gerbils diet it might not be used to it or it might be your fedding it too much
Can you use chinchilla dust for gerbils?
Yes you can. As long as its not clumpy and there is no wee or poo in the sand it is ok.
Best way to do this is after your Chin/s have had their bath is to pour the sand back into its bag or another container using a sieve (sifter)
This will stop the poo and hay going back in the sand.
Can you breed two different types of guinea pigs?

God, I don't know. I don't know what a f***ing vole is.
What are the physiological adaptations for the jerboa?
Jerboas jump at least 4 times higher and longer than their front legs. The jumping ability was an adaptation for escape in the open deserts from predators. When a jerboa moves quick, it leaps and jumps with it's hind legs, jumping up to 3 meters in a single bounce.
Hay is the most important, but they need pellets that have vitamin c, that have no sugar or molasses, and that has no salt. You can give them dry uncooked oatmeal every other day and a dry uncooked whole wheat noodle once a week. Do NOT GIVE THEM ANYTHING that HAS SUGAR IN IT! They might get diabetes if you do. The oatmeal and noodle are optional.
Why rodents do not have canine teeth?
The pair of front teeth on the upper jaw and the pair on the lower jaw of rodents grow constantly. This is an adaptation that allows them to gnaw on wood without wearing down their teeth. This is unusual, because most mammals do not have teeth that can grow or repair after they finish their initial development.
Do Beavers use particular trees to build their lodges?

What kind of rodents are the cleanest?
So far, I (as a child) have had two guinea pigs, one mouse, and one bunny. You can never really generalize on animals because each one is different. My guinea pigs were social but could be skittish at times and shed a lot. The mouse I had was mostly nocturnal (meaning they sleep during the day) and when I tried to pick him up, he always ran away frightened. The bunny I had was very sweet and lovable but bit me once and a friend told me it could have been his "teenage hormones".
As I said each breed and individual animal is different but my experience has been that bunnies/ rabbits tend to be the warmest, most social, cuddle up rodents out there.
No. Not at all, I don't think.
Because rats are WAY bigger than mice (unless its like, a super small rat)
and even then, the rat would probably kill the mouse. I don't recommend it.
What kind of mammal is a rodent?
Rodentia is an order of mammals also known as rodents, characterized by two continuously-growing incisors in the upper and lower jaws which must be kept short by gnawing. Common rodents include mice, rats, squirrels, chipmunks, gophers, porcupines, beavers, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, chinchillas
Can two female chinchillas be in a cage together?
Yeah, but like with every other animal, you have to introduce them slowly and let them get used to each other. It's best to have them in a neutral play area for a while, so they can smell and get use to each other, and neither has territory there. Then it's best to put them in a neutral cage together, again, territorial issues.
The rat, the opposum, the squirrel for openers.
Muskrat, rice rat, gerboa, gerbil, house mouse, any of various wild mice and rats or squirrels. The opossum is not a rodent, however, but a marsupial.
