so im back on here again needing help with an animal thats not a bearded dragon lol. i found a baby mouse stuck in some syrup today. i cleaned it up the best i could and got it set up in a tub with some bedding, water, and oats. i called a vet and all we could figure out is that its probably no younger than 2 weeks. its eyes are open, it has fur, it has teeth, and its fast. it weighs 5 grams. we are gonna get some kitten milk replacer because they dont get weaned until 3 or 4 weeks old. does anyone have any advice on how to care for it?? or somewhere else i could go to get advice? i joined a forum called fancymicebreeders but im waiting on a reply. the plan is to release it once we catch an adult who can care for it but who knows if we will be able to.

Maybe get a heating pad and put something over it so it does not accidentally burn the guy (Put it on low) and so it doesn't die of the cold. Keep the little guy warm! Look at a store to help you get your supplies or maybe Amazon has some heating pads for mice and some other stuff for it. Like @xp29 said, Look at YouTube for help with your little guy ^^

Mirage is shedding....he seems to be feeling itchy lol. Giving him a bath later today. Can Aloe be used on bearded dragons?
Gus - he’s a rescue!
How much water should I be giving my bearded dragon? He will only drink from a dropper when I drop on his nose and I’m not sure if I should give it to him until he won’t drink anymore? Or should I stop after he’s had a certain amount?
Just want to check that if my beardie is ok I managed to get a video of him yawning today and screenshot him with his mouth open does he have mouth rot??? He is eating and drinking normally btw, the discoloration on his left of the mouth has been there for a month but the discoloration on his right side is new
