Hi,
I have resently begun breeding mice and I have put in endless hours of research. However, I am curious as to your opinion about housing a pregnant mouse with another female mouse. I know that this can and has been done and usually works out fine. I have also read articles on this topic in which the other (not the mother) female will steal the litter from the mother, and because of malnutrition the babies will die. I cannot decide which would be best for my mouse, and would like to know if you have had any previous experiences in which either of the the above things have happened. Thanks in advance,
