Comparison of mouse body weight between standard and divided caging, beginning at 28 days old (A). Over 10 weeks, body weight increases are consistent with upper limit thresholds for this strain as made available by The Jackson Laboratory. By repeated measure ANOVA, body weight has a main effect of time and condition (see results). (B) Body weight was lower for mice housed in standard caging until the addition of a cage divider. Open dots indicate body weights following the introduction or removal of a cage divider. Dashed line indicates the cage change time point when the cage divider was introduced or removed from standard or divided caging, respectively
