The DBA/2 inbred model was developed by Little in 1929-1930 by intercrossing to generate new sublines, 12 (now known as DBA/1 and 212 (now known as DBA/2). NIH received stock at F34 from Midler in 1951. Midler received stock from Little in 1938. Taconic received axenic breeders at F137 from the NIH Animal Genetic Resource in 1981. The Taconic foundation colony was at F201 in 2005.

Packing Practices
Taconic standard practice is to recombine animals of different home cages and/or ages from a single model and sex during packing, except in specific cases where Taconic's animal welfare policy prohibits recombination due to aggression or other concerns. When an order is fulfilled with animals from more than one week of birth, this standard practice results in animals from a range of birth weeks packed together in a single TTC. When an order is fulfilled with animals from genotyped models, this standard practice results in animals from different home cages packed together in a single TTC.
Customers who wish to keep animals from different weeks of birth separated should place orders with the special instruction "Divide and label by age." Note that this special request can result in increased costs for additional Taconic Transit Cages, dividers and/or freight charges.
Taconic discourages other types of custom packing requests as they can have a negative impact on animal welfare. Learn more.

Data
Average litter size: 5
Taconic cannot routinely accept orders by weight for this model due to colony size. Please inquire for options if weight is critical for your experiment.
n = 250 per sex at MPF health standard from all global colonies.
High and Low represent mean +/- 2 standard deviations.
Based on sample size the charts above represent ~90% of the population.
All growth curves represent animals housed in our barriers, at our standard density and fed NIH31-M diet. Variations at customer facilities will alter expected growth curves.
