Baby mice have dry skin?

Question

Hi My 9 baby mice are 7 days old, they've started getting very fine fur but some have dry skin on their back, is this normal? And is there anything I can do?

My female mouse has a very good diet of mouse food, mouse fruit sticks, boiled eggs, porridge and cat milk. occasionally she has crisp crumbs. She also has vitamin drops in her water.

Answer 1

It's really normal when the fur comes in to see flakes/dandruff type stuff on mice and other rodents.  It's normal, and nothing to worry about at all!  It should go away as the fur comes in more.
