Within a few weeks, the two mice had 23 baby mice. We got an aquarium for the whole gang, and a short time later, there were 22 more mice. About this time we moved to Oklahoma which had parimutuel racing, and another batch of baby mice appeared. We had moved into a duplex and when I walked into the boys' room and found mice crawling up the curtains, I knew we had another crisis. I do not like mice particularly well either, and I sure didn't want them crawling around the house.
We negotiated a settlement with the boys. They could take the mice to the pet store, sell them, keep the money for something they wanted. They agreed. So, the mice were gone, Snakey was gone - no complaints from mom. If I only knew what their next investment would be!!
