My Spiny Mouse!

[SuperNaturalist91]

i love spiny mice! he's sooo cute!! :) i love mine :D mines called myrnin :D one of the best pets!

[Rebornsforlife1]

do you think i could put a spiny mouse with another hamster like a chiense dwarf hamster?

[HezteTozzen]

@Rebornsforlife1 Definately not. A spiny mouse should only share a cage with other spiny mice. Also, most hamsters are solitary in captivity, and are happier with a cage of their own. :)

@HezteTozzen

Thank you that helped alot :)

My spiny mice were brothers; I went to the breeder's house and saw the parents and other siblings. I had them in an aquarium that was pretty large(a bottom of about 2ft by 3ft. I even gave them separate shelters and food dishes. There were no other mice in my appartment, thus no female mice were there. I went to school one day and when I came home, one mouse had killed the other one and was in the process of eating it's internal organs. I was sooo disgusted. Now my one mouse is super aggressive.

Nice :)

[dubblebubblerincess]

a fact about spiney mice: when over croweded they will eat either their own tail or the tail of cage mates, its sorta their way of making room for the rest of the group

[Spinymice]

These critters are awesome! I have 4 and are breeding one of the pairs! Hopfully I will have little spiny babies soon!

[ozzysangel]

I rescued 2 Spinies from a boy who didnt really take care of them properly to say the least and because of this they are missing their tails and are very scittish as a result, they were also very thin when i got them and lacked protein because they werent getting the proper diet

[LeahNeNe]

:D Im getting two babies from a breeder soon. Im scared that once i get them something will happen and their tails will fall off, I heard they fall off super easy. o.O

[HezteTozzen]

Just don't pick them up in their tails, and they will be fine. :)

[ZakiSukii]

Omg I want another one. D:

I have two. But one of them died today.

[ceskitty]

OMG! I want one ! Aren't they hard to find in pet stores???

[HezteTozzen]

I think that depends on where you live. If the pet stores don't have them, you could try the internet, maybe someone nearby have some for sale. :)

[MusicalTBonesz]

[freak9420]

im taking 1 this saterday are they hard te take care off? And can you keep them in your bedroom or do there droppings smell?

[HezteTozzen]

They are very easy to keep, and they don't smell as much as regular mice. They are very social though, so maybe you should get it a friend. :)

i have one and i am getting another one yours looks very happy and clean and healthy

[HezteTozzen]

No, not at all. They might bite, if they're not used to be handled, but that goes for all pets. :)

[emkjovimom]

[dubblebubblerincess]
