This is Granite, a variegated tri/transgenic buck who is about 18 mo. old. He's been bred once as I really liked his look and behavior. But that was before he fell ill, with a serious problem with his skin beginning around his ears and spreading into the ears and onto the face and torso. He was treated for about 10 days with antibiotics, topical steroids, and antihistamines and recovered quite nicely, by my estimation. He has been presented on another board as a contender for the ugliest mouse ever. He is a very sweet, shy little boy who never struggled or tried to bite me during his treatment. He whistles when he wants me to put him back down in his tank, and likes to play peek-a boo around the fixtures in his tank.


He's a bug-eyed baby with bare patches and his ears are just about gone, but I love this little guy!
