Preggers "feeder" mouse, round two!

So, intended today to bring home a "manly mouse" to hopefully mate with surprise pregger feeder mouse I got last month, but came home with another preggers feeder girlie!

We were at our preferred reptile shop, Amazon Reptile in Claremont CA, and I was asking for a "nice manly man mouse for mating" when my buddy who works there was like "oh well we just got in some nice silkies and one is pregnant but we don't need her, do you want her?". Weellll sure!

I know that "THIS THREAD IS USELESS WITHOUT PICTURES" but she's suPREMEly pregnant and I wanna give her time to adjust to a new cage but she's a lovely shiny caramel color and much larger than "Miss Mouse" (my regular white albino? preggers feeder mouse was)...

ahhhhhhh she's beautiful!!!! i just love her. her coat is very shiney and i agree... she's much bigger than miss mouse.

what's her name?

*pretending she's enjoying the pics i know cass reeeeeeeeeeeally wants to share with me*

Until I read your post, her name was "the brown one", but I guess now I'll have to call her "Cookie", since you are the cookie queen. =)

I'll see how she is tomorrow and try to sneak a picture...:)

She sounds absolutely adorable, and silkie to boot!! :clap: I hope she does well for ya.

Oh can't wait for the pics! I love our silky mice and considering my previous opinion of all things mousie...well that says a lot LOL Hope all goes well with the impending mouse birthing.

OMG, we have pictures!! Introducing "Cookie"...=)

WOW! She really IS ready to pop, isn't she??? She looks like a silky wind-up toy! LOL

:giggle: I'll bet!

She looks like she's about to explode! :explosion

Oh she is big and so pretty too. Nice find hon, now keep that camera handy for the baby mice pics LOL.

Well, she popped later yesterday afternoon...I have a feeling she may have munched a few as I see quite a bit more blood than when my albino girl went...but I can still quite a few ruddy pinks in there when she shifts to the side a bit...

I'll pictures in a few days when she's calmed down a bit...=)

Updated pictures...prepare to be envious!
