Newborn Baby Mice - The Pinkies
Like 4 Dislike 0 Published on 2 Dec 2012
Our blue mouse gave birth to 10 squeaking baby mice.
The father is a pink mouse, and the mother is blue, so we call the babies - The Pinkies!
In that video we are changing the gravel for the mice a couple of hours after birth, so we really needed to be careful not to upset the mother and the newborn mice.
So we put on gloves and moved them carefully from one tank to the other, changed the gravel and put them back.
While they were in the other tank, they were going crazy and very uncomfortable, so we had to hurry and move them as fast as possible, moving the parents first and the squeaking babies right after.
As soon as we were done, the mother took all the babies by the mouth and dug them deep into the gravel, hiding them from eyesight.
Our mice are special mice - Colored Mice!
A Blue mouse and a Pink mouse do have Purple Babies :)
