it isn't the daughter

it's your husband who is killing them kinda

you see pine bedding gives out this toxic which when the mice breath in it poisions them so dont use anymore pine or cider shavings and basically most wood shavings try something like carefresh or something like that

PS: you are most likely to end up with about 100 more mice because if they are all together (male and femle) the will breed quickly

good luck with all your mice and possibly soon to be mice

get them on a paper bedding and onto a food with no seeds in it. the pine bedding has a chemical in it that will make them ill or kill them if they are constantly exposed to it and the seeds present a choking hazard. the chlorie and floride in the water are dangerouse to them. take a milk jug or other large container and fill it up. let it sit over night before putting it in there water bottle. are they in a room that gets faily cold or in the path of a draft? e-mail me and let me know if any of that works.

I tell EVERYONE not to but rodents in those wire cages that you buy at the petstore that they say are perfect for rodents. They are not. When you put a bunch of mice together and you don't know where they came from there will be diseases that they can carry. I'm not saying that ALL mice or rats are diseased but in some pet stores they don't get them checked by a vet before they sell them.If you have an air freshener in the room try taking it out. The pine bedding is not good for them and it isn't very comfortable for them either. Try aspen bedding. Also, you need to find out the sex of the mice and separate the boys from the girls or in about a month you will be out number by mice.

i think it's the bedding, change the bedding asap, dont use newspaper, they could eat the ink. use other bedding.it's not your daughter's fault, she's taking care of them right.

Youre right, the problem is the pine bedding.
