Dong on the head to stun, or a tea towel on the head, grab the head, tilt to 90 degrees tothe body and a sharp tug

Azza, if done properly it is instant, alot quicker than CO2, its the most humane way

RE: Go fourth and Multiply!

should you take the mother and babies out of the main cage when they are born?

Or do you just take the male out? Ive heard many conflicting stories. When I take the mum and babies out I seem to have more survive. when I have left them in they tend to get eaten by the others.

What should I try?

RE: Go fourth and Multiply!

i would say, that when you leave them in, it is the mum eating them, prolly stress related.
i always seperate my mums with their litter to another cage.
as soon as you mum is preggo, remove the dad. he'll even eat them at birth the little funker.
