Cage Type

There are six cage types in the census:

Type Mice in Cage
Mating male and females together to generate progeny
Breeding female with pups
Weaned newly weaned mice that haven't been tagged and tailed
Ungenotyped newly weaned mice that have been tagged and tailed but haven’t been genotyped
Stock males or females with known genotype
Plug male and females sit together to generate progeny

You can change the color of each cage type in menu Lab->Program Settings.

To set up a mating cage, simply move the male and females into a cage and change the cage type to "Mating".
