short of strangling and freezing the nasty female mice I have (you have no idea how hard it is for me to put it this nicely )? One of them had four babies almost two weeks ago. She's been caring for them just fine up until last night. Last night before I left for work I noticed she had left them on the opposite side of the tank and this morning when I looked in on them I found three partially eaten baby mice (one of the four died with no apparent cause earlier this week). The other female I have is probably going to have a litter in the next week or so. The only thing I can think of that could have caused this is stress caused by me moving them to clean the tank. I've only cleaned it twice (once a week) since she had the pinkies. Could this be the cause? Should I do away with these mice or give them another try?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
