Tuesday

Today I came in and Juan told me to clean out the food bucket for the HCR/1 mouse room. I did that and through out the old food I cleaned the bucket and vacuumed around the bucket then I gathered the things I needed to clean the room. I clean 20 breeder cages and around 9 holding cages. I made 2 new cages out of the hoppers. I took the dirty cages to the dirty cage room and vacuumed and mopped the floor in the mouse room. I cut 5 packs of paper for the snakes and placed them in the supply room. After that I helped lucy take the snakes that were going to be extracted from to room 103. Then I cut parafilm and got things ready so I could process the venom. I pippetted for a while then bruno took over. When I came back from class I unloaded the cage washer and put the cages back in the cage room. Then I got some more cages and prewashed them in the sink. I placed them in the cage machine so they could be washed tomorrow. I stamped the paper that bruno cut and placed them in the supply room.
