Animal ID

Introduction

Normally, ANY-maze will refer to animals by a simple sequential number - so Animal 1, Animal 2, Animal 3 and so on. However, it's likely that you already have a system for identifying animals, perhaps based on their cage numbers, or the experimental groups they're part of.

Clearly then, it might be desirable to use your own IDs in place of ANY-maze's animal numbers and the Animal ID element of the protocol allows you to do this.

What you need to do

Each of the steps below is a link, which you can click for more information.

 1.Specify whether you'll be using your own IDs or not 
 2.Choose whether or not to verify IDs before each test 
 3.Specify the name to be used for the animal ID
