store-bought food for mice contains grains, such as barley and millet, which are also rich in fiber. It also contains protein, such as beans and soy, depending on which type of food you find at your local pet food shop. Even if you feed your pet mouse a high quality mouse food, versus a cheaper commercial brand, it is important to also give your little pal fresh fruits and vegetables, particularly crunchy ones.
--- BEDDING
Recycled newspaper, aspen, and fleece scraps
--- ENRICHMENT
A simple yet effective idea to provide enrichment for your mice is to fill a cardboard
roll with paper towels and stuff a few treats in there for them to forage. They are likely to use the paper towel as nesting material so it's a win win!
