is Raising feeder mice for you?

[NetBSD]

i tried water bowls when i first started keeping feeder mice and rats (cheaper to buy by bulk) and it doesnt work. all the mice/rats would walk thru the bowl and pack it with bedding.

so now i use cheap water bottles found at walmart and havent had a problem yet, the female rat has chewd thru the plastic holder but i fixed that by hanging the bottle from the screen top with steel wire

I had to get a glass water bottle because the rats chewed hole in he bottle. I also throw in the cage a plastic Tums container and a stick of wood. It seems to help with the need to chew.

try poster mailing tubes also
it's a really hard thick cardboard which takes them a while to demolish, and they like to nest in the tunnels
I've gotten good at sawing up the longer pieces
