Some can just look a bit different, just like their faces can :)

Here's two of mine. I took the picture to show the faulty tan-coloured areas and the proper, nice, 'clean' areas but it shows a big difference in their lady parts too:

Is she a Fuzzy or Hairless?? Cos female fuzzies can look a bit male like, cos there bits stick out more.

That looks like a little lady in heat (the 'thing' tends to enlarge and the opening to the mouse-gina becomes more visible from my experience, so I can see how you could be confused). (Mouse-gina? Wow, I'm creative.. :lol: )

However, how old is she? I think you should be able to see her mouse-nipples by now.

erm i'm not sure the breeder has said shes around 3 months but tbh i dont know, since he sold me a buck as a doe if you get my point, she's very inactive atm and only comes out of her nest to eat and poop and even then shes very slow tbh i think she could be pregnant as there where at least 2 bucks in the cage with the doe's that we know of one is one i got which was ment to be a doe. shes put on alittle weight since i got her too i've had her 6 days so i'm guessing she could be about 10 days pregnant maybe more, shes not massive yet so i'm just going to count 21 days from the 3rd which is the day i brought her and i know she hasnt been with a buck since. so both my doe's are on a count down to see if they are pregnant :( not impressed with the breeder but to be fair there isnt many to choose from up here.

My tris all seem to have a long urogenital spacing, which is a big part of the problem I have sexing them reliably, and teh presence of nipples on meeces that turn out to be male adds to the confusion. Fun, fun, fun!
