My boy friend recently got me this little chocolate doe, she is soo lovely and such sweet natured. Well she gave birth to her first littler this morning 7 little pups cant wait untill I can get them out and have a good look. I will take some pics in a couple of days let her settle in with them first
Thanx
From what i can gather from my boyfriend hes not that mousie lol he is chocolate too but carries dove and i think she does too guess ill just have to wait and see
If your mouse is chocolate he can't carry dove (dove is pink eyed black and black is dominant to chocolate). He could however carry silver (pink eyed blue), which can look very similar in some cases. Hope that helps
Thanx Im still not very good at genetics im learning but I really need to go over it with some one lol theres only so much you can pick up on your own Need to get a couple of book out as well lol. Grr its really anoying when you get a mouse and dont know who the father was and the boyfriend hasnt told me who it was he got her off he says its just a friend of his who was finished with breeding mice. I know she is not inbred as apparently the guy was a reliable breeder or what ever lol From what I can gather as I have just told him what you said he said well it was either dove or chocolate (hes no help lol).
Anyway heres some pics of my little girl and her 7 babies just 2 days old, there soo small. I had a peek in and she climbed on to my hand and up my arm while i had a look Best mummy yet not one has died or been eaten and all full of milk.
6 days old and there getting sooo much bigger already I think I have 3 does and 4 bucks today theres always the same 2 who im sure keep changing sex for the last week lol
BIG BIG thank you to peteyandthegang for coming round 2day and confirming that my 3 little girls are girls and other 4 are boys BTW flaire is fine now and looking just as big same goes for dusk dont know what that was :?
