Hastings Reservation, Monterey Co., Calif
July 21
This PM on GRID RC we caught 1587, ?, SAD, st 5,17 with Blue-Green
(continuation)
visible in her ears. This PM we also set up a dyadic encounter
between O?0110 and Lab F 1491 between station 7,12 and 6,12.
(O?0110 was caught at 7,12 and we set up the arena at the nearest
flat spot). F-1491's smear this am was 80% leukocytes and 20%
nucleated epithelial cells.
July 22
Returned to do the test at 0450h. She O? had dug under the
divider and both mice were on the same side - We pulled out
the divider and watched them for 20min. They remained huddled
with the F on the back of the male for the entire 20min - obviously
this test stinks. At death the F's smear indicated 85% leukocytes,
15% nucleated epithelial cells with no sign of sperm.
This AM on the GRID we dusted F 1364, post-lact, st 6,13
with Golden Brown.
#1708? O' lumm, TND. 15.5g. Ear-tagged. (GRID RC, st 4,10.5. Cell tissues.
Coved with ORANGE powder -- offspring of F-020. Knockdate of
birth between 25-27 June - 25 days old [calculated 25]
This PM on GRID MC we dusted F-020, 40g, mp, st 10,6 with PURPLE powder;
F-1497, 38g, mp, st 9,12 with Blue-GREEN; and F-1409, 42.5g,
post-lact (very weak), st 8,17 with GREEN powder.
#17089? F lumm, multiparae. 17.5g. Ear-tagged and toe-clipped (#046). GRID MC at 8,17.
Cell tissues. No sign of powder, but must be offspring of 1460 based on locality
Yes! see 24 July note.
July 23
This AM on GRID MC we dusted F-0169, 42g, mp, st 8,4 with RED;
and F 1351 37.5g, mp, st 10,9 with ORANGE.
This PM in GRID MC we caught O? 1480, TND, st 9,10 covered with ORANGE
powder

This AM on GRID MC we caught O?1464, st 10,15 coved with visible
