Spanish dormice will be relatively close to owners with familiar smells, but will be relatively repulsive to strangers, so Spanish dormice must pay attention to cultivating proximity when raising them.
To a certain extent, it is recognized that after it gets familiar with the smell, it will be closer to its owner and more confident that it is its owner, and it will not even sleep with a stranger in the owner's hands.
The dormouse belongs to the order Rodentia. The dormouse is named for its love of sleeping. It seems that the dormouse knows the secret to longevity; it will take a nap at any time, even in noisy and messy places, it can still fall asleep.
The dormouse looks very much like a squirrel, with a small body, weighing only 30-100 grams, short hands and feet, a long hairy tail trailing behind it, and twisted toes. It is good at climbing high trees. The body length is 85-120 mm, and the tail length is 60-113 mm. The average lifespan of artificial feeding is 5-8 years, but during 3/4 of that time, they are sleeping. Every summer is the breeding season. They grow 1 to 2 times a year and give birth to 3 to 4 offspring per litter, up to 6 to 7 offspring. It only takes 7 days to grow hair, 14 days to open its eyes, 21 days to stop breastfeeding, and it will be fully independent at 4-5 weeks.
