Default Multimammate mice???

Hi,

I know i've read on here that someone breeds multimammates but I can't remember who??
I was going to get some and try to set up a colony.
Does anyone know of anyone in the North East, or nearby, that breeds them??

There are several of us who are breeding multis - whereabouts are you?

I do have a male and a couple of females if you're interested and could meet somewhere reasonably convenient.

Hi,

I'm up in the North East, Newcastle/Durham way, I do go down to Yorkshire occasionally but won't be for a few months now.
My Partner, John, has been rushed inot hospital for major surgery so I won't be going anywhere very soon.
When things have settled down I'll ask again in the meantime if anyone knows of a breeder closer to me I'd appreciate that.

Just off to hospital to see if John is out of surgery yet. They wouldn't let me stay as it was an 8 hour surgery.

I know reticulatus is in/near Yorkshire and uses multis. Not sure whether he breeds them or not though, might be worth messaging him to check.

Yes i am after some.
With John in hospital at the moment I can't travel for a week or so tho'.
I have thought long and hard about having a small colony so that when I have a dogdy feeder, like my new royal, I am in a position to try everything to get it feeding.
I would only be after maybe one male to three females!!!!!
Does that sound about right?? I would still be feeding defrost as I would find it difficult to euthanise the young. My son says he will do that for me if/when it is required. ( Where would I get the CO2)?
The breeders would be pets as well.

I'll try reticulatas as well if he's close to me.

Unless they've been selectively bred for temperament and carefully handled from a young age....they BITE.

Not just little test bites, either - if you give them a chance they will bite nastily.

Multi Breeding colony Posted : 23 May 07 I'm looking at selling a "ready made" multimammate breeding colony.

This comprises of 20 new/nearly new boxes, 80 breeding adults and various aged offspring (approx 150-300).

This colony currently produces upwards of 250 pinkies per week.

I can also provide 150 kilos of food if required.

This colony is in York and is for COLLECTION ONLY.

Please direct any SERIOUS enquiries to me via email. Posted by : reticulatus Location : York IP address logged 86.137.35.209 Send an email in reply to this advert
