A photo DOES say more than a thousand words! Thanks for the help! I'm going to set up something like this! BTW, what type of CO2 cannister is it that you use? I was going to rent one from the air gas shop locally, but they want $55 a year lease plus refill costs (for a 20lb. tank). I don't think I really need something that large.

::Does anyone have instructions for a simple CO2 chamber? I've heard that you can make one out of a plastic tub with a lid. Where is the CO2 tube inserted? Near the top or the bottom? How much CO2 is necessary to humanely euthanize mice? Any advice, instructions, or links would be greatly appreciated!

:Heres what I do.
