Hey guys! I started out with 6 adult hopping mice a few months ago, I was told I had 2 males and 4 females. I was also told that they sometimes breed and that some people have more luck than others and that a good diet makes a difference. Well 4 days later I had one litter, another a few days later and a third a week after that! So I thought well those females must have been preggers before I took them. So now I have 6 or 7? juvies who are very cute and I thought hm maybe that's that. I was happy to keep those (big long 6ft tank). BUT now there's 2 new pinky litters combined in the nest (about 9!!) so I can't keep going on like this, I need to get rid of males ASAP!
Only problem is they don't have obvious male 'bits' like rats do.. so I don't know which are the males Does anyone know how to tell the difference???
