I'm a small hobby breeder of pet mice in Keene, NH focusing on merles, tri-color, and siamese!

Just a reminder everyone that I am CLOSED to the public indefinitely! If you are looking for a new mouse breeder, I recommend this one! She's located in upstate NY, but I believe is able to meet in western MA and other new england areas!

EDIT: All mice are claimed!
Okay guys, this is quite literally your very last chance to own mice by me! These 3 girls are retired breeders, just over a year old and sweet as pie. They all deserve to live out the rest of their lives as pets. One tri color, one x-brindle, and one ivory. They MUST go as a trio. They've been together their whole lives and I won't seperate them now. $20 for all 3 and they must be picked up in Keene or surrounding towns.
As sad as it is to be getting out if mice, I can toot my own horn with confidence that I've done some amazing work over the years with these mice, and they are still some of the absolute sweetest I've ever seen. Once these 3 are gone, I'll be down to just 3, all of which are being moved upstairs into my son's room where they will live out the remainder of their days, and we will be permanently closed.

There aren't many reputable public mouseries in New England anymore, but I recommend this breeder located in CT. She's gotten mice from me before to work with as has stock from out of Dandelion Critters!

Hello everyone! I've received quite a few messages over the past month about the status of my mousery and weather or not I've got any mice available and if we're still open. The only mouse I have available currently is a a BE cream rex male who is as soft as they come and has a great temperament to be a child's pet. Other then that, I am closed for the foreseeable future. I still breed for myself so who knows what will happen later down the line, but I'm simply moving on to other things for me to be able to do this on a larger scale.
As far as breeders go, I unfortunately really don't know. The few reputable ones I knew of have closed down also to the public, though there is one person I know of who I believe is in CT that has gotten mice from me to work from and has good stock. I just can't recall her name. It's been wonderful meeting and working with you all! I wish you guys all the best! ❤️

I've basically downsized my mousery with the exception of a few lines - my tri colors, my creams, and my x-brindles. My mousery is closed publically until further notice while I take care of life and breed at my own pace! I do anticipate to open again, but I just can't tell you guys when
My breeder recommendations are:
Michelle Welch in Manchester NH
And Fleur Del Lis Mousery in... CT I believe. The breeder has some mice from my lines she works with! https://www.facebook.com/fleurdelismousery?mibextid=ZbWKwL
I'll still pop in with the occasional update, but please don't expect me to have any available mice any time soon!
Merry Christmas to you all, and a fabulous new year! ✨️

EDIT: They've all been adopted!
Hey everyone! I currently have 4 female mice that are looking for a home! One blue, one siamese splash, and two black banded! $5 each and I want them to go in pairs at the very least. Please message me if interested!

First I just wanted to apologize to everyone who's been trying to get ahold of me on my mice. Not much has changed since my last update. A lot going on in my world with health, sickness, and many other things that have taken me away from Facebook. Sadly I've lost a few projects, but at this moment in time, it may be for the best, ad I know I can obtain more later down the road when life has stabilized.
With all of that said, I've made the decision to shut my mousery down until sometime next year. I'm really sorry, guys, there's just so much going on here for me to be able to keep up with the public, and it's not fair to you all.
My health and my families health obviously comes before all else, and I can assure you the mice are still being very well cared for as they've always been. I'll even post some picture updates from time to time. But for now, this is simply what's for the best.
I wish you all well!

UPDATES:
I want to thank everyone for their patience with me! I've been slow both to update this page and answer messages. Life for me has gotten very busy, and has taken me away from Facebook often.
So there are some important changes I'm making, some permanent and some temporary.
The first one is I'm only going to be selling mice publicly from my tricolor line. You guys are paying good money for these mice, and while nothing is ever perfect, my tricolor/splash line is the only line of mice I have currently that I 100% trust to consistently produce gentle, curious and friendly mice. My newer lines need a lot of work. While beautiful, very few of them are actually pet quality and it's going to take some time to get them to where they are. I will still be updating you all with pictures of my breeding progress with my west coast lines, but for now it will only be my tricolor/splash mice I have available.
The second thing I want to update everyone on is delivery fees. I'm now going to be charging by the mile vs my former flat rate. This will be much more fair to all parties involved.
My next litter I'm aiming for is November!

Just wanted to let folks know I will respond to messages tomorrow night! Some things have come up that are keeping me away from the internet, but I'm not ignoring you! Sorry for the delay!

A pile of hopper tris lol
As of right now, there are no more available mice (with the exception of 2 retired breeding boys who are just the best ever!). Thank you to everyone who inquired and expressed interest! While the decision to get a pet of any kind should never be something to take lightly, even with "easy" pets like mice, if you see me post something and you know you want it, DON'T wait around. Contact me imediately! My mice get reserved VERY fast, sometimes within hours, and that's it for the next month or so. I'm very small scale, and while I like to have a number of pregnant/nursing females at once, I don't breed my mice back to back, so once babies are gone they are gone, and it's a waiting game on the next litter.
Honestly, the best thing you can do is contact me to get on my waiting list and tell me EXACTLY what you are looking for. My waiting list people get first priority, and if there are any extras I post them on my page!

Happy National Dog Day...🤦♀️

These two baby girls are the last out of my tricolor/splash litter! They will be ready to go home September 10th! If you're interested in giving the two of them a great pet home, reach out now!

I also have these 4 beautiful boys who are looking for a home. This is a rare treat, as I don't often have these varieties available!
Pink eye cream
Silver
Satin ivory
Tricolor
Two of them are retired breeders and 2 others were just extra who're just to sweet to cull.
If you are looking for really sweet boys as pets only, consider one of these guys! Retired breeders are $5 each and baby boys are $10 each.

I have two retired breeding females who I would like to go together as pets! They are mother and daughter, who are currently nursing their last litters, and would need to finish nursing and weaning their babies before going. These girls are the sweetest mice ever, and will make fantastic pets for anyone!

I just cleaned out 16 cages, and haven't added back everyone's toys and hideouts yet, but because I don't allow folks into our mousery to visit the "mouse room" (with the exception of our plumber lol), I wanted to just snag a couple of photos so you guys can see where the "magic" happens. Believe it or not, this is what a "small scale" breeding operation looks like. This is nothing compared to other mouseries! Also the shop vac is my BFF!

Enjoy these photos of an extremely friendly (and huge) PE Cream hopper boy ❤
I'll be making a public statement/update later this afternoon in regards to adoptions!

My apologies for being slow to respond to messages lately, guys! I promise to get to them tonight!

In regards to breeding my mice:
If you come to me to adopt mice with the intentions of breeding them, just tell me and be honest about it. There may be some lines of mice I'm more protective of and unwilling to let go of, but I'm NOT a gatekeeper by any means. I have no issue sharing my stock with other responsible breeders, but if I dont know you, I just want to have a conversation with you to ensure my mice are going to be in good hands, and you are aware of what, if any, issues run with that line so you can breed accordingly. Also, not all mice are breeding worthy even if they are good pets. You lie to me about it, you'll be blacklisted and other breeders will be notified.
If you are under the age of 18, or buying for someone under the age of 18 so they can breed mice, I won't sell to you. I started learning about rodent breeding when I was a teen, and there's nothing wrong with that. But breeding responsibly takes immense effort and understanding of genetics and husbandry. I have no problem helping kids learn, but won't sell breeding stock to them.
11/08/2022
I've got some good news for you all! We'll be back in buisness come September 1st, and have some super sweet babies who will be available! Mostly tri color and splash, as those are the only ones I can make a guarantee on for good pets at this moment in time!
In the meantime enjoy these pink eye cream babies! 😁

DNS: SIENNA WOLF follow up
Follow up video on the whole Sienna Wolf fiasco. I'm sorry for those of you here to see pictures and videos of cute mice and not listen with drama, but this is MY name she's dragging through the mud. This is the son of the mouse in question. Sweet, docile, friendly and easy to handle. He was no different. His parents were no different. His grandparents, etc. This has been a very consistent line, and one I've taken immense pride in. Sienna Wolf is continuing to lie and slander me, because she's been caught, and is now threatening to rehome him. If you live in Maine and/or are part of any rehoming groups, please keep an eye out for her posts advertising a blue tricolor mouse who looks like the one here in the video. If you can assist me in getting him back in some way, I'll pay you for your troubles. I don't believe for a second he's aggressive, but regardless this is clearly NOT a healthy situation for him and he needs to come home.
DNS: SIENNA WOLF
DNS SIENNA WOLF I NEVER make blacklist posts like this, because I've never had an issue with anyone I've felt the need to publicly call out. I feel the need to call this person out though, not only because it's my reputation they are dragging through the mud regarding a retired breeding male mouse I sold them as a pet, but because they are trying to, and will, do this to another breeder. This is a video of the mouse in question. I was contacted beginning of June by Sienna Wolf, who said she was looking for a pet male mouse for her 11 year old daughter. I showed her some pictures and a video of a blue tricolor boy who's a retired breeder of mine. My tricolor mice are a line of mice I developed years ago that was specially bred for my kids. The mice from this line are very friendly, docile, and gentle. He was no exception to this, and had been a huge smooshball his whole life, which was why I had kept him as a breeding male. I delivered him to Sienna June 25th in Maine, and met a woman who I assumed was the mother. I got all kinds of videos later, showing him as a happy bubbly mouse. Last night I got a message from her, saying the mouse I sold her was "lunging and biting" her daughter, and wanted to know what to do. My initial reaction was a mixture of heartbreak followed by an anxiety attack, but once I calmed down and really thought about it, I knew there had to be a mistake. In some of the videos I was sent, she had been feeding him a lot of treats. My thought was he had grown accustomed to taking treats and was nipping her fingers in anticipation of those treats. I asked her to send me a video of it, and she told me she would the following day. Not to long later, I found she had posted in a breeding group I'm in, asking why the male mouse she had was biting her. So now other breeders, many of whom know me and have obtained mice from me are seeing this. I imediately responded, and it basically came down to she'd get me a video. The video she sent me was of my

This blue sepia guy was born with a crooked tail, so he'll be going to a pet home next week. But look at how huge he is already!
Burmese babies!
Aaaaaaand here they are in all their glory!
Pedro the pigeon
This is pretty random and has nothing to do with mice, but this is our pigeon, Pedro! Hes a roller pigeon we've had for roughly a year now. Pigeons have an unexplained GPS device in their heads that allow them to navigate and find their ways back home. Even scientist have a hard time explaining it. Before the USPS, they were used to deliver messages! Pedro has absolutely no desire to fly off without my direction. Even if spooked and he flies somewhere other than where I am. He always seems to know how to find me. He's been in trees, on rooftops, on playground equipment, etc. And because I know people will be concerned about his safety, don't worry. We live in town and rarely ever get hawks. When we do, he's aware of it before I even am, and let's me know. Pigeons get made fun of and are considered stupid, but they are scary intelligent animals. Also, he's never left outside by himself. He lives indoors with us :)
