ACK!! Cannibals!!

I recently went to the pet shop last week and purchased 9 white feeder mice for my ball jeepers. That made 12 mice all together (seeing as I had 3 left over for the week before last) Guess how many I own now? only 5! The snake hasnt even had a single mouse, they have been killing out each other! I think i should consider putting them in seperate containers before theres none left for, Jeepers.

Any suggestions? lol

The best idea is to feed your snake frozen thawed prey.

Good Iddy, but will he accept it? I mean of course the petshop fed him live mice. But I'm down with freezing them.

Watch your mice carefully, I am sure you will find the culprit. Usually there is one mouse that picks on and beats up all the others.

Mice are very territorial, and will kill new mice introduced into their "home". Housing a bunch of male mice together isn't a good idea either, and it seems that the majority of feeder mice you buy at the pet shop are males.

As Jim said....a very good reason to switch to f/t. If you do a search, there are a lot of threads here about making the switch to f/t.
