Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

I added kitten chow(the cheap kind)to their regular food and mine became breeding nuts!!  No idea if this will help but it is something someone told me and it seemed to help. Good luck! Hope you have some babies soon!

It is too early to expect babies. They usually take some time to "settle" in and begin to breed. Then it takes approx. 4 weeks of gestation before having babies. All that is assuming they were old enough to breed to begin with. So relax, it will happen eventually.

just dry kitten food, any brand. They seem to love it too. No idea if it really worked but I had waited quite some time and as soon as I added it to their diet I had prego mommy's. I still use reg mice chow but add this to the diet while breeding.

I keep the breeding group together at all times, you will find the other mom's and the dad will help out with the babies. I don't hold any of my breeders, my girlfriend will open the tubs from time to time and "pet" them.

I keep my mice families together too...they really do help each other. And I never held mine but my daughters friends would come over and pet the mice because they were afraid if the snakes  .
