humped back

External Since: Jan 07, 2005 Posts: 2

My pet mouse started walking around with a tightly bent back a little
while ago. I'm wondering what this is indicitive of, and if it's a bad
thing. If it is something bad, what can be done to take care of her?

Thanks for the help.

Thank you so much. She's living with another mouse who is growing well and
appears very healthy. I suppose this means that the food I give them is
good for them, but perhaps she's not getting enough, but I dont think
that's the case. I'll look into liver disease as well. Thanks again.
