Litter

Add litter information into the database when a female gets new litter. The program will then automatically remind you when the pups are old enough to be weaned and tag&tail (if tag&tail before wean). You can find the wean list in the task calendar, or click on the mian window. After you wean the pups, please add new mouse records for the weaned mice (please see Add new mice into cage for details), and update the litter informaion to remove the female from the wean list.

There are two ways to add new breeding information:

1: Click Menu->Mouse->Input Plug Information (or Input Breeding Information), or click the buttons on the toolbar of the main window:

2: On “Cage” window, double click the female record. The cage type must be "Mating" or "Breeding" for adding litter information.

There are three ways to update breeding information:

1: On “Cage” window, double click the litter record.

2: Search the mating history of the female by Menu->Mouse->Mouse Mating History, or click on the main window, then double click the record in the “Mating History” window to modify.

3: In the "Wean List" window, double click the litter record.
