Well, I was spot cleaning and feeding everyone when I noticed my two long furred meeces were being picked on so I put together a tub cage for them and got a pic of each. I was by myself so they are not great pics.
This is Brownie the one I think is longhair though her coat is filling out, the guardhairs are still longer than the rest of her fur. She is agouti.
This is Burma Baby, I was told he is poor quality Angora, his guard hairs are closer to the same length as the rest of his fur. I was told he is Blue Agouti.
I was surprised to realize they are the largest of my mice that are this age. Very fluffy, but I can see the fur quality improving with good selection. I had to put them together as I only had one bin left. I will be improving my caging further in the near future. They are only 4 weeks old, I had to check because looking at them I thought they must be older.
So, what do you guys think? A good start for me to play with long coated mice? Remember I only have access to pet shop mice right now.
