thank you for the input. right now i do know its not nessesary to breed for just cameron but at least I know what everyone is doing here. I also have a place for those "Fancy" mice to go, we do have one auguti colored one and the other is more like a cow print (cant think of something in rat pattern to describe it as) they didnt have many "bew" mice there... It is just a pain to have to take the boys into the pet store to get mice every 5 days.. cause the kids think they are getting a new pet everytime so it made more sense to get three or four at a time
