I have had loads of litters recently and have been really useless in updating. I have 8 litters nursing at the moment and a further 10 due in the next few weeks. Its the busiest I've been in my mousery and its great to have lots of mice to choose from.
I have a whole spare day tomorrow so I'll be taking lots of pictures.
Here are the crosses:
Black Tan x Cinnamon Tan Rumpwhite (4 Does)
2 Agouti Tans
2 Agouti Tan Rumpwhites (tiniest bit of white on the bum)
Unfortunately the mother is affected by a resp problem I've been having and one of the agouti tans is also quite bad so she has to go, the mother will be removed as well once the healthy ones are weaned.
Black Tan x Chocolate Tan Rumpwhite (3 Does)
2 Black Tans
1 Black Tan Rumpwhite (tiniest bit of white)
This is the mothers first litter and at first was in with an interfeering nanny which reduced the litter down to 3 does in the first few days, i think its had an effect as the babies are really tiny, I wont breed from them so they are available for pet homes.
Chocolate Tan Rumpwhite x Cinnamon Rumpwhite (5 Does)
2 Cinnamon Tans
1 Chocolate Tan
1 Cinnamon Tan Rumpwhite
1 Chocolate Tan Rumpwhite
The unmarked babies are available for sale to breeding or pet homes thye are really beautiful.
The cinnamon tan rumpwhite has a great top line but shocking under while the choc tan has a great under and wavy top!!
Black Tan Rumpwhite x Cinnamon Rumpwhite (4 does 1 Buck)
Choc Tan RW Buck- Excellent top and under lines but a big spot on the hip!!!
3 Agouti Tan RW- one of them is looking good the other two are good enough for breeding.
1 Cinnamon Tan RW-Another potential breeder.
Black Tan (from rumpwhite parent) x Cinnamon Rumpwhite still too young to tell about markings and colours
And I also have my first litters which will be homozygous un-tanned which is exciting, they are only pinkies so dont now how they are looking yet but have my fingers crossed, there should be chocolates, cinnamons, agoutis and black selfs.
Also one of my dilute does has had a litter, one very dark skinned rumpwhite buck and two very pale rumpwhite does and one unmarked pale doe (mother reduced litter down from about 12, I only removed one unmarked buck).
Dilute Doe:
And her babies (confirmed gender today there is one buck (dark skinned) and three light skinned does):
