I love my little mice, so inquisitive. I have a pure white and a patchy one, who seems to have changed from a cream in a matter of days :loopy::huh:

Sort of yes,we have three in our garden who have over wintered in our cold frame,my mrs has fed them parmasen cheese and buns today,they seem to like it.

:hihi: I meant domesticated ones

ive got 8 :D lovely little things just a pain when they decide to escape :S

I know exactly what you mean :hihi:

yeah one of mine has evaded all means of capture i can think of :(

Try a milk bottle tipped slightly, it'll fall in and get stuck

will try that tried buckets, humane traps, traps where u pull it and it falls on them...ah well lol

It's funny you should say about your cream mice changing colour.

My little dumbo ratty boys have gone from a cream ("champagne) hooded marking, which has faded, to white-with a mucky-smut on the end of their noses, and they're about 3 months old now.

my boys are gorgeous, they look just like the pic above...

did you adopt your babby from Mojo? cos if so, yes, they'll be siblings, as my two are from Merry and Pippin. (Mojo was saying that she has kept a little champagne girl and the "hood" faded, and a black smut appearred on the little girl's nose)

they are so cute, I was sat with one of them nestled in my jumper, last night,(He likes nothing more than to have a snuggle and a nap, curled up in the crook of your arm.

I could have crowned them, yesterday, (well, ;) I would have but I was helpless with laughing at what the little tinkers had done.

I don't quite know how they managed it, but they managed to pull my best, thick, winter-weight knitted cardigan through the cage-bars, and chewed the sleeve off it. (it was over the sofa-back, so I'm not quite sure how they got a hold of it, to pull it through.

Anyway, cue one shredded cardi, utterly ruined, lol. I can't be mad at them,for more than a few seconds, though, they are just too cute.

delightful, amusing, cute, little tinkers, naughty, but cardigan-shedding little monkeys, nevertheless!

Where did you get your mice from? My sister is looking into getting some!

Like this (look at Mink Point Siamese)? : http://www.hawthorn.org.uk/varieties.asp

I am rubbish at rat varieties (I don't breed), but I guess they might be something "point" - if they have a darker snout? Cute though :love:

I lost my mice last week, gutted :(
