*Raleigh Repticon Today*

North Carolina State Fairgrounds Expo Center
(Gate 5 off Youth Center Dr.)
1025 Blue Ridge Road
Raleigh, NC 27607

Block 1: 9am-12:45pm
Block 2: 1:15pm-4pm

As a heads up, we have our normal number of mice with us, but this is a larger expo than we normally go to, so we recommend coming early for the best selection. Any of them will make wonderful pets though, so don’t despair if you can’t make it here today!
We do have temporary carriers so you don’t need to bring a carrier to get your mice home in unless you want to. We also have travel bins and Kritter Keepers available if you prefer something sturdier, and we have soaked cucumbers for hydration.
We have 5 bin cages available this weekend as well, either alone ($30) or as a full starter set ($55). Bin cage starter sets come with a free mouse, (up to $8 value for females and $12 for males).
Remember to check-in with on Facebook when you get here (or tag us .matthers.mousery on Instagram and use # RepticonRaleigh) and mention code EXPO10 to get 10% off your purchase!

We’ve been super busy over here since December, so much going on! So we are a bit behind on answering messages (and that wasn’t helped by FB blocking us from sending PMs for almost 2 weeks recently 😣). We’re almost caught up, but in the meantime, I also realized we had not announced…

**RALEIGH REPTICON THIS WEEKEND**
We will be at the NC State Fairgrounds Expo Center this weekend, March 19-20, at booths R17 & R18!

We will have our usual variety of colors, patterns, and coat types, males and females, from age 8 weeks and up. We will also have a selection of the supplies needed to get your new pets set up and cared for, including bedding, water bottles, hides, toys, feed, treats and a limited number of bin cages.

What a busy yet fun weekend! We absolutely loved getting to meet so many wonderful people and sending our mice to some awesome homes!
We love our mice so much and are truly passionate about breeding the friendliest, healthiest animals possible, and we so appreciate the opportunity to show people what great pets they can be and share them with others.
Next up is Raleigh Repticon in March, assuming we’re able to reserve tables once registration opens! We’ll post it here once we’re booked, so keep an eye out!
In the meantime, we’re going to take a few days to rest, get the mousery back in order, and get some boys and girls paired up to make some more gorgeous mice to share with you all! Follow us on Facebook or Instagram to see all of our upcoming baby pictures ❤️. If you have any particular varieties you’re interested in seeing in the future, please let us know by Thursday!
In the meantime, please check out our website for info and resources on all things mouse! https://www.lvmmouse.com
This little girl has the right idea, we’re going to take a cue from her and relax a bit (with our faces smooshed against pillows instead of plastic though 😂).

02/06/2022

We have about 14 girls and 6 boys left! We’ll be here till 4pm, but would recommend getting here soon for the best selection if you’re hoping to take mice home today. We have everything you need to get started!

We had an awesome time at the Fayettville Repticon this past weekend and truly enjoyed meeting so many wonderful people! We are planning to be back in February and will update once our table is confirmed. We will also have a selection of products available, like water bottles, hides, running saucers and a limited number of custom bin cages. Please let us know if there’s anything specific you’d like to see!
In the meantime, we have a new way to register the mice purchased from us! We use specialized software to track all of our breeding and pedigrees and we like to add the info for new owners to the profiles of individual mice we sell. This allows us to easily identify mice and lines involved if owners have any questions or issues down the road, particularly when trying to figure out color genetics, and to notify other breeders if we find something in a line that they have mice from. If you got mice from us this weekend and would like to register them, please visit our website (LVMMouse.com) and find the link at the top of the menu.
We took some time yesterday to catch up on rest, these little guys get it! 😂

12/12/2021

We’re back at Repticon for Day 2 and there’s still time left to come see us! We had a blast yesterday and sent a lot of awesome mice home with some really great people, but we have plenty left if you couldn’t make it yesterday! We did sell out of a few varieties, like CPB, Abyssinian and Fox, so we brought a few more of those out today. We’d recommend you get here sooner rather than later if you’re interested in any of those though!
We also have a few more accessories left, like water bottles, wheels, Kritter Keepers and full bin setups.
Thank you to all of our excellent customers yesterday! We appreciate your support!

12/11/2021

It probably seems a little odd to be bringing mice to a reptile show when they’re not for feeding (not that we’re at all opposed, ours are just pricier than what I think anyone would pay for a feeder mouse because of how much work we put into our lines!) But we love the herps too and have found that many other breeders do as well. A huge number of them actually do both (and I am dying for a snake, but I’m still working on my SO 😂).
Regardless, the reason we’re there is all the same… the love of the animals and what we do and the desire to share it with others!
See you this weekend!

LVMM @ FAYETTVILLE REPTICON, DEC 11 & 12!
Hey all!
We apologize for our long absence, we have been dealing with some unexpected health and personal issues that have made it impossible for us to operate as normal.
However, after a pause for a breeding burnout, we are still working to keep our lines going as much as possible so as to not lose all of our hard work.
There is still a good amount of demand for our mice, and we hate that we do not have the resources to personally work with individuals the way we are accustomed to. We don’t know when we’ll be able to return to that either, though we plan to do so. In the meantime, as a solution we have booked a booth at the upcoming Fayettville Repticon on Dec 11 & 12 in order to allow customers to come to us and select mice at their convenience in one easy location. Please see the link below for details and directions. We will be in booth P11, on the back wall of the main Expo Hall.
We will not be accepting preorders and will not be able to address questions about individual mice availability, but we will have over 120 to choose from, male and female, breeding and pet quality, in a wide range of varieties, colors and patterns. We will post a more specific list of colors/varieties this week to give those interested a better idea of what will be available.
We will not have ready made bins available for purchase, but will be able to accept a limited number of bin orders for those purchasing mice on Saturday to be picked up with their mice on Sunday.
We will do our best to answer any questions but unfortunately cannot promise we will be able to get to all of them, as preparing for the show is about as much as we can handle at the moment. Posting questions here rather than messaging will make it easier though and minimize duplicates.
We appreciate all the continued support and enthusiasm our customers have shown us and look forward to being able to share our mice once again in this new format!

We hope to see you there!

Hello all! We’re still reorganizing and recovering from our transport trip this past weekend. It was a lot of work but a huge success and we thank everyone who got mice from us or trusted us with transporting their animals! We really enjoyed meeting everyone and seeing and caring for so many beautiful animals.
Huge thanks to Rocky Point Rattery for coming along to help out, definitely couldn’t have done it without you!
We will be taking a short break (1-2 weeks at most) to finish getting all of our new stock settled, getting pictures and pedigrees entered and updated in our breeding management software, new pairings planned and scheduled, and just to have a little breather and spend some time with our other animals and family!
We have several applications and requests that came in during and just after the transport, and we will get to everyone in the order they contacted. We appreciate your patience in the meantime and look forward to working with you shortly!

UPDATE: If you have tried to message me over the past week, Business Messenger is not allowing me to open most of my messages, and the ones it does, it is not allowing me to reply. I’m not sure yet what the issue is, but hoping it gets resolved soon. In the meantime, please reach out to me through the transport group or send me an email at [email protected]. Sorry for any inconvenience, it is quite an annoyance for me as well!

We have updated availability on the Google doc! Sorry for the lack of updates recently, we’re in the process of unexpectedly trying to buy a house (it’s a long story as to how that’s even a thing that happens...) so things have been extra crazy around here!
All of the mice listed will be ready for the April 3-4 transport. We also have an additional 4 litters that will be photographed and posted this weekend that will be ready by then as well (beige/cpb/coffee selfs and foxes, agoutis, fuzzies, pieds, tans, etc.). If you have previously spoken to me about mice from upcoming litters, I will be reaching out over the next few days as I work my way down the list. However, if you don’t hear from me by the end of the weekend, please message or email because it appears that Google deleted some things from my spreadsheet/application and I have no idea where that info went or what it actually contained 😣.
Here is the route and pricing info for the transport. Carriers must be ordered/delivered to us for your mice for transport (sizes are based on Kritter Keepers). Transport must be reserved and paid and carriers received by the Wednesday before transport (3/31).

If you have any questions, please let us know!

April Transport/West Coast Transport Extension : 4/3 & 4/4
We will be running a round trip transport route the first weekend of April from Fayettville, NC to Frederick, MD. We will also be meeting up with a connector route (The Modern Mouse) in VA from the KAB transport route running the weekend before from CA, and with the Many Mumbling Mice Transport route from ME in MD (Baker’s Dozen Mousery). The direction of this route and individual stops are not set yet, so please reach out with any interest so we can determine how to best serve you.
All inquiries regarding the West Coast route and reservations for that transport should be directed to KAB Transports (Kabtransports.com). Coordinated transport will be available between all transports and details on pricing and how to reserve will follow shortly.
We will personally have a wide selection of colors and varieties available and are currently taking requests. Please visit our page to find our Available Mice list linked in the pinned announcement. It will be updated consistently as babies grow out. Males will not be available (except for those already listed) unless requested in advance and a refundable deposit received.

We’ve been on hiatus for the holidays, but now it’s a new year! Time to start 2021 off in a big way, we’ve got big plans and a lot of gorgeous and adorable mice on the way!

11/15/2020

Deadline for reserving mice for the upcoming transports is this coming Wednesday night (11/18). Transport from Fayetteville, NC to south of Tampa down I-95 to I-75 will be on Saturday, 11/21 leaving around 7am and will be a $20 flat fee for any point along the route and any number of mice. You must either bring a container to transport them in, order one to arrive to us by 11/19, or purchase one from us for $11. Mice from Rocky Point Rattery must be reserved with them and paid for by tomorrow (11/15); pick up is Monday.

The Peach Rabbitry route will leave from the Tampa area on Friday, 11/27 and is a round trip route (direction will be determined shortly) along I-75 through Atlanta, Knoxville, Lexington, and Cincinnati to Detroit; I-95 along the coast through GA, SC, NC, VA, DC, Maryland and PA to Philadelphia/Allentown, and across through Pittsburg and OH through Akron and Toledo. Reservations for this transport must be made with Peach Rabbitry ($20/carrier) and medium Kritter Keepers must either be provided and arrive to us by Thursday (11/19) or can be purchased from us for $11.

Mice must still be selected and paid for by 11/18 because they will be prepped and ready for transport along with the mice for the first transport.

We will be home in FL for Thanksgiving and will be putting some mice on this transport at departure. If anyone else along this route is interested in any of our mice, you can contact Peach Rabbitry directly through their page to reserve a space, and reserve the specific mice you would like with us with a $5 deposit per mouse. Available mice are currently up to date here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1--QJlkiCONjsmupSa92ULftfwEiC6gI5Bo396UM43wY We will have several other litters of excellent show type quality weaned before this date and posted in the next couple weeks as well.
You must provide Critter Keepers for transport. All reservations, deposits and Critter Keepers must be received by us no later than 11/19. Females can be transported together, males must be transported individually (unless getting a breeding pair or trio that you would like paired prior to transport). A small Critter Keeper will accommodate 1-3 mice, a medium will be needed for more. This is the cheapest place online that we have found them - Small: https://www.petproducts.com/product/lees-aquarium-lees-kritter-keeper-with-lid-small-9x6x66?gclid=CjwKCAjw0On8BRAgEiwAincsHEbxPg0zNyAN2xJ05YrN5spE7ve44MfCCvI1-TCPfscw3Z30xc7evxoCsAMQAvD_BwE

We have been quite busy lately and have fallen a bit behind on updating, but we have plenty of wonderful babies ready to go and coming up! To make it easier to see whats available and search for what you want, we’ve put together a Google Doc page for you. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1--QJlkiCONjsmupSa92ULftfwEiC6gI5Bo396UM43wY/edit
We will update it as babies become available, so feel free to bookmark it and check back regularly! The link is also now in our pinned post at the top of our page as well.

Durian is a very special little boy. He is incredibly friendly and loving, he never hesitates to hop right into an open hand. He is our only Agouti, and also Belted and White-nosed. He will be the foundation buck for our Hereford line.

10/01/2020

Bacuri is our newest buck and a real showstopper! His father is the son of 2019 FMBA BIS/BOA and BOS winners and his mom is a showline Pied Siamese. He’s a Color Point Beige and our first Extreme Dilute (c^e) carrier. He will be the foundation buck for our Coffee Fox and Tricolor lines, we expect some gorgeous (and very sweet) babies very soon!

10/01/2020

Born 8/30. Very sweet, loving, personable. Good type, correct, great coat and coloring. Carries Satin and Angora.

10/01/2020

Born 7/8. Cute, inquisitive, outgoing. Great type, points are darkening up nicely, has nice, even coloring. Carries Angora and possibly Tan (hard to tell with his coloring and the Himalayan dilute turning Tan to white).
