please answer!!!!!!!!! can i keep 6 male mice in the same cage?

Answer 1

Sometimes, but usually no...

They will usually get along for a while if they are very young and from the same litter (sometimes they will get along with other liters if they are introduced when they are young enough)...

But after a while, males usually fight over dominance and it can get very ugly...
You would have to have a huge cage with lots of activities to make it work....

If you want 6 mice together, get 6 females, you will still need to get a big cage with lots of toys, but they will get along much better then males...

Hope this helps...GOOD LUCK!!!!

Answer 2

Although mice are community animals (meaning they prefer to live in large groups) putting one or more male mice together can be a probem.Keeping two male mice together is a situation that may or may not work out, so unless an owner is prepared to house them individually it may be best not to try. My usual warning is having male mice live together can sometimes work if they are litter mates and /or are raised together, have never been separated, and have a large enough cage. However, male mice can be territorial and sometimes will not get along, even under these circumstances.
In a scenario such as the one here, where fighting has become an issue serious enough to draw blood, spearating the mice was the correct course of action becasue the fighting can escalate resulting in serious injuries (or worse). Furthermore, once male mice have been separated for any length of time, I would not recommend trying to put them together again.
