Edit Litters

A typical use case for editing a litter would be if you initially entered a neonatal or unweaned litter and now would like to wean those pups. Another one might be when pups die or must be sacrificed. You could filter the mouse table by mother and birth date to find the pups of that litter and use the multi edit form to update them. However, the Edit Litter form provides an easier way to achieve this. As with the Add Litter form, its input fields depend on the type of litter (weaned, unweaned, or neonatal).

1. Click on the Litter link at the top.
2. Click on the row of the litter you would like to edit.
3. Click the Edit Litter button at the top.
4. Fill out all required fields (depend on the type of litter).
5. Click the Save button.

For a weaned litter make sure to fill out the wean data and move the pops to a different cage than the mother.
