Mouse or other rodent thread!

[The Moonshiner]

I used to go to swap meets! I didn't know they were still doing them. I used to have some really really nice mice. A couple that would mop up at shows.

You've always been a weirdo, huh?

. You can see my rats nose in the background but decided to keep this one so he was added to a colony of females as i have way to many males but a few look to pretty to use as a feeder i have a 55g tank eith a colony a 20g with a colony and spare cages for extra males and females

You raise mice to feed the extra males to your rat?

No i raise them for the females i use as a clean up crew for my budgies seeds and a weasel took out my colony last year so i had to repopulate my females

I've looked through my soon-to-be show type mice and chosen the six lucky young does who'll I breed with my soon-to-be show type young bucks when they get older. There are three white ones, one blue pied, and two black pied. They all have particularly large ears and one even has ears that are in the right position on it's head. I'm not happy with the length of their tails though. I have noticed that one if my older white bucks has a particularly long tail. Hopefully if I breed the large eared mice to the long tailed mice then I'll have a few come out with both large ears and long tails.

Update the thread once babies are old enough to really start showing their potential!

I used to breed Merle, Broken Merle, Tans and Foxes.

I had a few Self Orange, Self Dove, and Self Champagne Satins and Frizzies too.

Tans and satins are my dream Do you remember where you got them from?

A couple different breeders at my club swap. That was 18 years ago, though.
