Looking for Aurora Super Mice

magick-bears Apr 09, 2004 11:31 PM

Hi All,

This is my first (of hopfully many) post here. I am hoping that someone will know what it is I am looking for.

I was very active in raising and breeding of fancy mice and exotic rodents and small mamals. Then in 1989 or 1990 I came across an ad in "Exotic Animals" magazine (wish they were still publishing it was a great independent mag) for what was being marketed as the Aurora Super Mouse. Well after some lengthy phone calls and a couple of letters with pics I desided to ship in 10 breeding colonies from California ( I was in Texas at the time). Needless to say I fell in love with them. This stain of mice was much larger then fancies, had big ears, and satin coats. The originals and largest were the siamese.

I worked with the Super Mice from 1990 to 1999. In 1999 I had to sell all of my animals due to some personal and health reasons. Well my health has improved greatly and my kids are know of an age where they want some pets and I want to get back into breeding. Unfortunatly, after extensively searching the internet, I can not find any indication that this line is still in existence. If anyone here knows of any breeders still working with this strain, please, please, let me know.

Thanks,
Jeff

Hi, I personally have not ever heard of them. They sound amazingly nice from your description.

Here is a site that caters to everything mouse, all kinds, and has tons of links, people to contact, people to chat with, about mice, well I thought maybe if you could talk to others, someone here may be able to better help you find them.
