great for you! you are in for a great treat! you will be amazed at these little guys. i will not tell you anything else. just prepare to be in amazement when these babies come and mature.

i bred spiny mice for two years, but i did sell them to the petstore. we actually had a pretty good one in town, and they sold the spiny mice for 15 bucks and no way someone was going to feed that to there snake and i admit i profited pretty good....
on store credit that is but when you have tons of critters thats just fine with me.

good luck and when the babies come please post pics of their development

I definately will post pictures so don't worry about that . Our petstore is great too but I would hate not knowing where my animals ended up. So if I did sell any then I would sell them to individuals and make sure they knew what they were doing.

Thanks! Haha, yeah. That shelf is a mess right now...I cleared it off to put the tank there and by "clear it off" I mean I shoved everything to the side .

I used to love Peeps when I was little but I don't eat them now because I'm vegetarian. So for Easter my mother got me that stuffed one and said it was a vegetarian Peep .

I found it easy once I started, too . Even though we don't exactly live in a vegetarian-friendly area.

So cute .
I'd never seen a spiny mouse before, until I came on here that is. They're so darn cute.

Thanks! Actually, they are supposed to be more popular there and you can get different varieties . They are difficult to find in the US and you can only get the agouti-colored ones.
