Well the parents are both the same colour so maybe its a stone?
I dont think there any red in the genes.
I'll just be getting it for pet and hobby breeding. :)
I just wanted to know what colour it actually was as I've come across so many breeders
using beige as a colour.
I looked up on thefunmouse website and they show a beige mouse they said on there that
it has the same genotype as coffee, that its just a much lighter variety.
So maybe thats what it is?

Thanks for your help :)
I don't think she's a bad breeder just because she doesn't know the correct colours. :think
Even I'm getting confused with the many names for different colours.
I'll ask about illness in lines etc just to make sure. But her mice are just pet mice, which
is all I'm really looking for. :mrgreen:

oh of course not! lol I wouldnt even consider getting a mouse from someone if i didnt think they looked after them and if
they wern't healthy. The person is a hobby breeder, not an expert and hasnt made out that they are.
And I certainly wouldn't start breeding them if I didn't do a lot of research before hand and know that I would be able to look after them, as that would be unfair. :)
Anyway, apart from all that. I'm guessing theres no way of telling what colour the mouse is? :lol:

Unfortunatly, all they know is the parents as they can't go back further,
Pink eyed 'Beige' & White broken marked female (which I'm guessing would be a broken Cham?) X black eyed 'Beige' & White broken marked male.
and thats probably not enough info. :|
Thanks for trying ;)
