• Environmental enrichment - Shepherd Shack provide an activity center for mice to climb on. They can also be chewed and shredded to build a nest. Reduced litter stress - Bedding can be easily changed in the area around the Shack without disturbing the litter inside.

• Reduced aggression - The Shepherd Shack caters to rodents' natural subterranean instincts. It can help reduce aberrant behavior of some of the more aggressive strains, while offering mice a safe refuge from their more dominant cage mates.

• Increased surface area - In addition to the cage floor, the Shepherd Shack's surface area may be counted as floor space.

• Superior Nest building device - Each Shepherd Shack forms an excellent foundation for nest building when combined with Enviro-dri nesting material. Mice pull the preferred quantity of nesting material into the shack to construct the perfect nest.

• Improved breeding environment - Early observations have shown improved breeding results for certain strains of transgenics and other types of mice.

• Availability - It is available in five different shapes. The Shepherd Shack fits in most cages currently on the market.

• Autoclavable - It is easily autoclaved and is available irradiated.
