| I can answer questions about fancy mice and about exotic mouse species such as spiny mice, striped mice, natal rats, gerbil/jird species. I can give advice on housing, feeding, building toys, taming, behaviour, but I cannot answer questions on breeding and medical questions. Please see a rodent vet with your mouse ASAP if you suspect it's sick. | Available

| Currently, I have 33 mice 12 boys and 21 girls. I also have 2 cats and tropical fish.
I can help with behavior problems (I've encountered plenty), breeding, most health problems etc. I don't know a lot about genetics in mice.

| I can answer questions in German as well as English. I can answer questions about raising mice and caring for them as pets, with knowledge from my 35 years of having mice as very tame pets, including some breeding. I know about illnesses and problems which have come up in my experience with my mice. I also may be able to use contact with a fancy mouse breeding expert who is a friend (he knows a lot about illnesses too). Right now I have 4 sweet show (fancy) mice named Clara, Brandy, Little Honey and Fluff (who will have the name Clementine when she is big enough for it). My expertise is pretty broad, and I have numerous mouse books to fall back onto.
I want to stress that my advice is about tame mice, which may be very different than advice by someone who breeds rather than lives in the company of mice. This can lead to differences between experts, so be sure you are asking the right person. If I contradict what a breeding expert says, this is why. | Available
