Pregnacy is 21 days, adult size 3-4 months.There is a big variation in the size of large in pet shops most of mine would probably be classed as medium but then you get the ex breeders when their time is up and they would be classed as ex large. |

how long does it take to get from pregnecy to birth and pinky to adult |

We had already made a reaper so my hubby got the task of doing the "deed". I have never seen it happen but am told it is very quick.I also made the mistake of naming the first mice which made it harder to put them down as they were like pets. I now have 8 colonies of mice and got a colony of rats last week hoping to get my royal weaned to rats. It isn`t easy at the start but you get used to it like anything else.
I was just about to ask if you named them...but i understand the cost thing, at least theres one good thing, if ever you need to live feed you have a supply... |
