Yes,still trying to upgrade my mice habitat.
I don't want an aquarium topper now as I am using my aquarium [:

So...providing Martin's is willing to make the spaces 1/2 x 1/2 for me [like they were going to do if I wanted the aquarium topper]
I am looking at this cage ....

The Rat Retreat (R-685)

* 30" x 18" x 24"
* 3½" drop in style plastic pan
* 2 full levels
* Ramps with small landing in between so ramp isn't steep
* Front door for access to bottom level
* Full flip-top lid for easy access to top level


How many mice could I house in such a cage? They have lots of toys,but five females? [eventually I want more mice]:) I own 2 currently.

honestly i wouldnt put more than four max, bc they would be cramped...but two are so would be fine and you could even make the top a full floor, when i get cages i usually turn them into full floors to give my guys more running room or set structures that they can climb on

yeah, but i was thinking that you could make the middle floor full or even half full..more room

I'd think it'd house more than four mice, since it'll house 3 rats according to the cage calculator I use...

the reason i say about four or so is bc personally i like to give my pets tons of room, im always thinking bigger is better
