Yall seem to have PTSD. Why was it so bad? Why does everyone hate it lol? Part of me wants to watch it just for context but it’s 4 hours and y’all seem traumatized so I thought asking for yalls summary would be funnier.
TLDR at bottom cuz I kept rambling
Hi! I just got my first mouse a few months ago (I think I tag this as question/help? I’ve posted before but this is still my first so first time owner.. I dunno- anyway. )
I’ve been getting him used to me by bribing him with various treats but want to find something I can do often without risking his health. I was doing oats in very small amounts but realized I may be doing it too much because I knew it could only be a few but I didn’t realize it may be an issue if it’s daily even if it’s in very small amounts. I really don’t want to hurt the babies health >: is there anything tasty for mice that is healthier for them? Anything I can do daily as like a bonding thing? I could just offer him some of his daily feed in my hand (ofc leaving some in other areas so he doesn’t *have to*) and he’d probably still come but I’d prefer to have something separate. I found out he really likes Cheerios but you can only give him like 1 of those a week and so I can’t exactly help his craving on that.
TLDR: what treats can I give to my mouse and how often to bond with him but keep his health a priority.
