Percival’s Spiny Mouse can dominate rodent fauna of “kopjes” (isolated rock ridges) and rocky habitats in central Kenya (80-100% of small mammals captured) and can competitively exclude other rodent species, including Kemp's Spiny Mouse (

Diets of Percival’s Spiny Mice contain more seeds, stems, and leaves in the wet season (10-30%) and intermediate season (45-65%) than the dry season when arthropods (60-95%) dominate their diets.

|
||
Within each kopje, reproduction is synchronous, with all adult females giving birth in the same time; however, reproduction is asynchronous among kopjes, even those separated by less than 1-2 km. Females were pregnant year-round in Meru National Park, with no relationship to rainfall patterns. Gestation lasts 34-35 days; litters have 1-2 young. At birth, young weigh 4-5-5 g, have hair, and are able to eat solid food. Spines develop at c.5 weeks of age at weights of 8-20 g.

Densities can be as high as 100-300 ind/ha. Percival’s Spiny Mice are highly social and notterritorial. They sleep together and groom each other. Both sexes carry young. Aggression can develop when densities are high. Dispersal among kopjesis low, and marked individuals have been recaptured in the same place after two years.
