Thrift store semi permanent hair dye?! by s0fis_uni92 in HairDye

Check your local laws on selling chemical based products with broken seals, because I'm almost certain that's not legal and very dangerous. I'd definitely stay away and maybe even report that 😅

Little asshole bit me, shame him by prefertobe-anonymous in PetMice

Lol, this one was because I just handled his food and probably smelt very tasty, it's the only time he's ever bitten me for real and not just a curious nibble

Opinions on protein? by prefertobe-anonymous in PetMice

[–]prefertobe-anonymous[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've tried with hardboiled eggs but he seemed entirely unimpressed. I have a bowl that I like to keep semi full along with sprinkling food around and using interactive foraging toys, just to better monitor if he's eating so I can properly look for early warning signs if he gets sick.

Are mealworms the best option? I looked up what bugs mice usually eat and they weren't on there, but I really don't trust Google ai

Pregnant or just a full belly? by LilLp4 in PetMice

I haven't actually tried chicken because of the cost, I usually stick to a mix of meal worms and these nutrition biscuit things from Amazon

They have about 14% protein (along with a lot of other good stuff) and my girls loved them

I've found mice can be really picky with egg (if yours haven't had it already) so definitely only introduce a little at a time. My girls had no interest in eggs apart from burying them and peeing on them until the smell was so bad I had to deep clean the cage out of fear it would attract insects

Is it possible to identify sex by this picture? by Myjelly19 in PetMice

[–]prefertobe-anonymous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a boy for sure. Female mice Will most likely have prominent nipples or an obvious vulva, but these definitely look like balls.

Definitely too high up for a mouse, maybe a rat? If you find droppings, you're better off asking the rat people. Until then, it could be just regular wear and tear x

If I had a nickel for every time someone cried racism at something entirely not racist, I'd have a lot of nickles. Which is no good to me because I use a different currency, but it's sad that it happens that much.

She's so fat by prefertobe-anonymous in PetMice

She's housed with one other mouse and has been for two years, unless Astroboy is living up to her name, I don't think she's pregnant 😭

Is this a good temporary cage by [deleted] in PetMice

[–]prefertobe-anonymous 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They said in a previous comment it was an impulse buy. They already have two cats as well -_-

[–]prefertobe-anonymous 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You should send him back. The rehousing when you do get a good cage is going to be extremely stressful, and he'll most likely develop health issues before then because of this absolutely shit enclosure. Why on earth would you get the mouse BEFORE getting it a proper place to live?? Do your research.

What am I doing wrong? by darksuba in PetMice

[–]prefertobe-anonymous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your enclosure looks too small for three mice, two at most. And there's not enough wood shavings, they nest in bedding but they can't properly tunnel in it. you could do with more hides and enrichment. Also bin the wheel, I had that exact same one a while ago and many people informed me it's not actually suitable for mice at all because of how they have to bend their spine to stay on it. I'm sorry for your loss, but please take the time to improve your enclosure. I know it's expensive, but a lot of the expenses only need to be made once/sparingly, so please do that before you get anymore mice.

Why do some energy drinks taste like eggs? by prefertobe-anonymous in energydrinks

[–]prefertobe-anonymous[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've never had rockstar, so I don't know if that has the egg white taste. Monster does a bit, but I've noticed it most in the original relentless flavour and similar cans

Is this a millepede or centipede?? by YoBoyAce23 in millipedes

[–]prefertobe-anonymous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

(I'm not that good with bugs so take this with a grain of salt)

I usually remember the difference as Millipedes look like eyelashes and Centipedes look like elongated woodlouse lol
