PHOTOS - More new fancy mice!


Made another trip to the breeder today and picked up three new fancy mice to join the other three I recently got (in another thread).

Meet. . .

Kori (I believe she's a satin red).



Talitha (a delicious satin chocolate)





Vita (a lilac fuzzy with more fur coming in).

Thanks. It was frigid today in NYC. I took them home in an insulated bag with hot water bottles inside!

I also got three new Spiny mice and a young "panda bear" Syrian hamster. They all stayed warm.

I know what you mean, since I live rather close to NYC. It was freezing...I hate New York winters.

Congrats on the other additions as well . Where do you get your spiny mice? What colors do they have? It's something I've been looking into for a while.

I hate NYC Summers. This past one was HIDEOUS and severely depressed me with every day over 90 degrees F and over 90% humidity. And bugs, flies, and more bugs. And crazy high electric bills for the a/c. And sweat.
I hated it, and I love this cold! I just put on another sweater.

I have other threads and photos up on my different fancies and Spiny's.

I got some Spiny's from a pet store (it is actually illegal to sell them without a USDA license, and maybe even with one), liked them, and got the rest. Of that six, one died a natural death, and a juvie and adult make were later attacked and mortally injured by another male. That lest two females and one male of that bunch.

But the first new birth was a male; he is in with two new female Spiny's I got from somone I know through a pet store who gave them to me (he only breeds for profit); the bitey male is in with the third new female. Hopefully, babies will result. They all seem to be getting along.

I have to clean the big tank, and sex the many juvies separating the males for now. I have to stop those two females (and any new ones) from breeding for now. Litters are only 1-4 babies, but they add up quickly.

How cute! I have a orange one just like that! Those ears are big, is there a name for that in mice or ears just come in all sizes? =P

I'll ask the breeder if there is a special name for really big ears.

The fuzzy one is the least timid; it has something to do with genetic lines, he also told me.

My Spiny Mice (in different threads) are really much less timid than fancy mice; maybe even less than gerbils!
