Cage Type
There are six cage types in the census:
| Type | Mice in Cage |
| Mating | male and females together for reproduction |
| Breeding | female with pups |
| Weaned | newly weaned mice that haven't been tagged or tailed |
| Ungenotyped | newly weaned mice that have been tagged and tailed but haven’t been genotyped |
| Stock | mice with known genotype |
| Plug | male and females together for timing pregnancy |

You can change the color of each cage type in menu View->Display Preference.
To set up a mating cage, simply transfer male and females into a cage and change the cage type to "Mating".
