I don't know if I've ever asked this before, but I CANNOT find a breeder of longhaired mice in new england. I've wanted one forever. I can find some somewhat long haired mice in pet stores from time to time, but I'd much prefer to get one from a breeder, and would honestly prefer one with very long hair..I think they're absolutely precious. if it matters, I'd prefer a female so that I have a better chance of them living with my current three females..as oposed to NO chance if it were a male...lol.
