Toby, No !!!

Toby is such a little character and quite the nuisance during baby mouse Sky's feeding time :) The words 'Toby No!!!' are often heard during this time :D He is so good with the baby though and loves to help care for her, I just have to watch he does not steal her from me when I am trying to feed her lol :D

Note: if you want to find out more about hand raising mice, look at my video series 'Raising a Baby Mouse 1-10'. Only do it with a true orphan or a doomed baby since hand raising is hard on baby mice. I only hand raise if I have a specific purpose, in Sky's case because I wanted to test out some set designs for filming. I fed Sky a formula just for mice I ordered from Australia (a Biolac formula). She did super on it. She came from a litter of abnormally small and skinny baby mice, her mother had been way too young to have a litter of ten babies. Sky did better with me than if she had stayed with her mom at the pet store, especially since she was destined to be snake food. Toby was really cute, he helped me raise her :)
