baby hairless mouse

the baby hairless mice are born bald, like all baby mice - and then at about two weeks they start to lose their hair, beginning around the eyes.

out of about 15 or so babies born, only two survived - and the previous litter i had written about with the murderous mother mice was completely lost.

these are tiny, about half the size of normal two week old mice.
