Mouse care schedule
For a beginner, what should a day of mouse ownership contain in terms of feeding and general care?
Best regards, Niklas 🎈
These are the things I can think of that should be done daily:
Checking their base fodder and refilling if needed
Changing their water
Giving some sort of fresh food
Doing a health check (checking eyes, nose and teeth, listening to breathing, feeling for lumps or wounds), not necessarily all of these points every single day, but often enough to ensure that any irregularities are detected in time
Letting them out of the cage to use an exercise/play area

Based on Isabellas nice answer this can be a care sheet: (maybe something is missing?)
