    I have a strange question. Is a white, blue-eyed horse, considered leucistic? :) I believe they are called cremello. Very pretty coloring.
    I kow that horsemen say "there are no white horses.. they're all greys." BUT in my opinion, if the skin underneath is pink and not grey/black, and it's not an appy, you've got a white horse.

    Yep, and they all get cancer. My equine teacher taught us this: There are grey horses with cancer and there are grey horses that will get cancer. They all will eventually get it, bleh...

    Blue-eyed, white horses are called SUNBURNT, LoL. I will never buy a horse that has pink skin, or is grey. Don't want to have to deal with the health issues...

    1 male and a few females is all you need. It takes approx. 3 weeks for the female to show any signs of pregnancy, so one may actually be pregnant now. How old are the mice?

    pet store sold them as adults, they are about the size of an adult mouse, but they dont look like they just ate a ping pong ball like the ones i saw there at the pet store,, the lady wouldnt sell me her pregnant ones, and actually seemed offended that i even asked.

    I have a grey horse, and he has a melanoma on his tail.

    I believe perlino horses also have blue eyes. Perlino is double dilute bay, cremello double dilute chestnut... also smoky gray.

    bawlzzzzz.. make sure you actually have a male and a female.. also make sure they are not too old.

    I think they still got it in them cause as soon as we put the females with the males they start doin it, but like i mean it seems like they arent catching

    I just want to make sure you only have one male per cage.. as males will be too busy killing each other to be making babies.

    Just because they are mating doesn't mean they are still fertile. Since you have multiple females, I'd guess it's your male that is the issue. Just buy a new set of mice if you want, don't mix and match (ie put in a new male with your old females) as they very well may kill each other!

    Yeah, we have to slather the sunscreen on Em when she is outside. I didn't take it into consideration when we bought her, since she was more or less a rescue case. I really wanted her because she had a much better temperament than the other horses we could have taken in. I know I could be called a "suckah" but I just could not imagine this horse going for meat. She has so much character and someone taught her some manners before, because she is just really willing.
    But when she comes home, she has a nice big run-in shelter for the hot days next year.
