Okay, lets see if I can attach pics properly... Let me know what you think.
This is my buck, if I understand right he is beige?
My black, very pregnant doe:
This is another one of the does, is she lilac?
The surprise in my first litter, a bad colored blue doe with long hair, I think. The doe was brown and the buck is the one pictured above. Now, am I correct in understand breeding this doe with a black buck might make a better blue in the next generations?
This is the above doe's brothers, the brown one is just like their mother.
These last 2 boys confuse me, any suggestion? They are 2 weeks old and the only survivors of a litter of 6, I'm crossing my fingers they make it because the first one pictured looks interesting.
Is this guy a dove? He's got black eyes...
There, that's most of my mice at the moment. Let me know if I got the colors wrong, I'm still learning the differences and some are confusing. I would like to breed that blue doe when she gets old enough, any suggestions on how I should go about doing it? Do I cross her with her black brother or, their parents just had another litter, all boys I believe, do I wait and see if one of the three blues look better than her and breed them?
Thanks,
Amethyst
