SFR are very cute but they do not like to be handled. I got my SF's from Jed "waves" and so far I have not got bit by one. They say you don't want to get bit...
I really don't know where all these stories come from. I have NEVER been bitten except by females with nursing young. Once the babies are weaned and on their...

Does anyone know about Himalayan/Siamese mice? My breeding male, Poopalot, is a gorgeous Him (with a docked ear) but he has pnly produced black mice! After...
I think most points come in a little after four weeks. The easiest way you could produce more him would be breeding your buck to a PEW(albino) mouse....
Thanks! I know very little about genetics and breed mainly for the fun of surprises :o) There is no rat/mouse fanciers club in Canada, nor is breeding a big...
A himi without points is just an albino... Himi x Himi will give you 1/4 Siamese, 1/4 albino, and 1/2 himalayan. This is really the bare basics of the genetics...
