In this report, we present a retrospective assessment of our experiences in maintaining a colony of Mecp2-deficient mice, and present conditions that we have found to foster breeding success of this mutant mouse strain. Data from our colony of mutant Mecp2 mice show that the Mecp2-null allele is under-represented in the weaned litter population, that litters born to heterozygous Mecp2-null females are...
