Wie viele Farbmäuse sind artgerecht?
Hey
Ich möchte mir gerne Farbmäuse zulegen und habe bereits Käfig, Zubehör etc.
Ich möchte mir gerne 3 Farbmäuse holen, aber ich weiss nicht ob das artgerecht ist.
Würde mich sehr freuen wenn mir jemand helfen kann!
So I always appeal for groups with at least 4 mice, because only then does a real group dynamic develop.
I always had between 4-6, especially important is to never separate the rancher, even if you go to the veterinarian, then everyone will come along.
Otherwise it can happen quickly, which was the “short away” is excluded from the group.
2 is guessed, but I would say a group of 4 mice, a group of only 3 is not advisable because a mouse is then always excluded or is rubbed by the other two. For a beginner, either a female group or a group of castrated males are suitable, or you can also keep mixed, but as said the guys should then be castrated not that you get unwanted offspring.
The German animal welfare association says at least 2
2-6 of the same sex or all castrated/sterilized but always a straight number, there are often couples when it is an odd number, is always one alone
at least 4 and cage is too small. Go to the sides of maeuseasyl and look at the self-built large volunteers
I’m sorry, but how do you know how big my cage is?
commercial cages would not be suitable for any animal. Because you write a cage, I can suspect it’s this one.
