Mice and Music: Week One
Stage one: Planning
For week one we have researched mice prices and habitats and decided how to create a clean living environment for our mice. We have looked at multiple sites for the cheapest mice and find exactly what they need to live a healthy life. We also decided on the music we will be playing for the mice.Following is the type of music we will be playing.
- Control (no music)
- Classical
- Heavy Metal
- Rap/Hip-hop
- White Noise
-Where to find the mice?
Here! We will being buying 5 female fancy mice from Petsmart for they are cheap and are not territorial like the male mice. I will use Tupperware for feeding and drinking bowels.
-Living Habitats?
-Food and Water?
We will be giving our mice tap-water, left-over fruit and vegetables, and store bought rodent food.
-Care?
We will be cleaning the mouses cages daily to avoid smell and make sure that the mice's well being is not influence by anything except the music they are listening to. We will always make sure their water and food bowels are full.
-After?
I plan on giving away most of the mice and keeping one for myself.

I am really exciting to see your mice. Hopefully you will bring them in for your end presentation. Once you have the mice you should post pictures of them and videos.
ReplyDeleteHowever, I think the mice are going to escape through
I'm really excited to see how this expirement ends. It is well thought out and controlled. I like the idea of seeing how they react to the different music. P.S i want one of the mice....
ReplyDeleteIt will be interesting to see what behavioral patterns emerge from the various forms of music. Perhaps you will find patterns between what people listen to and their behavioral trains.
