11 days old baby

:) so cuteeee

8 days old baby mice

:)
how cute they are..

Harold and Kumar

Kumar was looking down and checking Harold for a long time :P

no desex

oh well, my last hope is gone. :(
Harold and Kumar can not stay in the same cage anymore..
I called two vet hospitals and none of them perform desexing operation.. .. *sigh
one of them actually CAN desex my mouse(especially Kumar), but it's quite risky.. and COST A FORTUNE! $200AUS. man.. oh well.
how am I gonna get another cage?! omg this is the major problem.. I dont wanna sell Harold and Kumar coz they both are my first fancy mice pets.. and... u can't always gaurantee they will find the nice homes?.. same as baby mice too.. I feel like keeping them all, but...

Anyway..
my 6 days old baby mice are now vividly getting bigger. :) I can see their patterns now. Majority of them are black and white. :) so cute!! one has got this "heart shape" on his/her bum. xD
and one looks like cow pattern, nother has this black dot on his/her right side of face.. can't wait to see them running around the cage!!

baby fancy mice pictures

yes,, I counted.. finallyyy..
and there are approx 12... xD omg!

nest for babies

Another quick update! :)
couldnt sleep again, so yar.. watched 3 movies in a row. it was fun tho. :)
Anywhooo..
I heard squeaking sounds from the cage around 6ish and I saw Harold re-making(or tidying up) the nest.. and I got to check the babies out again! woohoo! I couldn't believe my eyes! I saw their eyes, little tails and tiny feet... incredible!!
I still couldn't count them all! :( but I think I will open the lid and check the babies out(but wont touch!) today when Harold is outside eating. (CAN"T WAIT!) meh.



Harold making a nest for her babies. :)




Do you see the babies?! xD It was about 6:40am in the morning




I tried to capture the babies so I could count, but it turn out blurry coz of the reflection coming from the plastic box :( mehh




another video clip of babies

my adorable fancy mice

Hi ! :)
just a quick update on Harold and Kumar. :)
Harold's been sleeping in that tunnel for whole day.. doesnt eat much either..
I wanna check the babies out but there is no more gap in the nest.. :( I wonder babies are alright.
Im thinking of giving Harold milk, but im not sure if she will drink it.. I mean as in "fat-milk".

diary about my pregnant mouse, Harold

it's been awhile.. oh well.. I have big news...
yes I was right. Harold was a female mouse.. She mated with Kumar and got pregnant..
she gave a birth this morning (or last night not sure).. :)
luckly I managed to have a quick peek at new born babies in the nest.. :) THey are so tiny!
Im not quite sure how many there are.. and I won't touch them til next week. I just want to make sure Harold looks after her babies without any disturb. :)



I took this photo 2-3 days before her constraction.. She didnt move at all in the wheel for such a long time. So I brought a plastic box from my boyfriend and separated her from Kumar. I put bunch of tissue papers and nesting materials inside the box so she can make a nice nest out of them. oh, and I put the look out tower room too.. as I expected, she made a nice nest inside and gave a birth. :)


I can't wait to touch the new baby mice! :D Im sure there are more than 5... I thought I would never be able to have a look at the new babies because Harold made such a nice nest inside the look-out-tower room. But there was a gap at the corner where u could actually look inside? I dont know if she purposely did it for me or not, but yeah.. it was so easy for me to just look at them and OMG ... I dont know how to describe this feeling but ... it made me so happy :)

Im going to put an ad on the site soon.. Im wanna make sure everyone gets adopted to nice homes.. for that I have a plan..

I feel so bad for not leting Harold and Kumar stay together anymore.. oh well.. for that I need another cage.. shitness. Im so brokeeee.. :(
