I've had three banded litters over the past year, and originally kept on the babies with the best bands.
The last litter had one buck with an excellent band, and one doe with what starts out to be a good band, but it doesn't join. Just a small gap on the side.
I really want to continue this line, but have never bred from a mouse without (what I consider) a good marking - hence the question I'm about to ask.
If I breed from the girl with the fault, am I likely to just get more faults? Or is there a chance that given the background (doe's mother with an absolutely fantastic band) that I might end up with a decent band?
