  1. Hold the mouse in the cup of your hand on its back.

    Look closely near the base of the tail on the mouse’s underside.

    See how close to the tail the genitals are. A female mouse will have her small opening right at the base of the tail while a male mouse will have his farther away from the base of the tail.

    Also note if the mouse has a small swelling, indicating maleness, on his underside near the base of his tail. Not all small swellings will be obvious so don’t use that as the only determination.

    Pay attention to other characteristics that mark a mouse as male. Male mice’s urine stinks to high heaven. Female mice are much more scent-friendly.


  2. Typically, pet stores usually sell only females.  The only sure ways to tell is to wait for something "to develop" or to take it to a vet if you can't tell.

  3. umm....It may be a girl

  4. if it has a thing it is a boy

  5. rub its belly and see if it has nipples

  6. if the mouse is really agressive it means it is a girl. on the otherhand if it likes to play around with you then he's a boy. what the point? boys are playful.

  7. a boy will kinda look like this (  OO  )  to little Os

    a girl will look like (  -o ) it will have dash  and a o

    That is the best way I can tell u without having a mouse and physically show u

  8. the other to got it wrong

    it depends on if it developed yet does it have the nipples only the females, have that if you can see nipples its a girl

    if the nipples aren't visible under the fur still don't see them its a boy, some boy mice develop later just like people

    and after a while if it is a male it will get an odor,

    it is the same as people some go through maturity  early some go through it later

    hoped this helps email if you need more Info

    about the pet stores only selling females

    my pregnant female, they don't at least the one's ive been to
