Abstract
Old animals are not commercially available in the U.K. The following problems associated with the supply of aged C57BL mice to an experimental group over a period of 12 years are discussed: the choice of animal, initial assumptions about management, and husbandry and its change with time. Finally, the recurrent problems which remain if valuable animals are to be kept disease-free yet available to experimentalists are listed.
