Does anyone here have experience keeping mice?
There's a good chance that I will be fostering a group of lab mice (all males). I've never had mice before... only rats and gerbils.
Anything particular I should know about mice?
I've heard that male mice smell... is that true? I live in a small apartment... do you think I should be able to keep the cage more or less smell free?
Since the mice will be lab mice, I am guessing that they are all white... is there a safe way to identify them? (a dab of food coloring maybe?)
