Which type-of-mice is the best-pet?

Fancy mice are the most common type of pet mice. They come in the smaller 'pet' variety most commonly found in pet shops, and also the larger 'show' type that are bred for showing as the name suggests. Multimmamate mice are the next common - these are also known as natel rats, or african soft-furs. They are larger than pet mice and sometimes have a reputation for being more aggressive although this is usually down to poor upbringing and lack of handling whilst young. They are sometimes referred to as the link between rats and mice. More exotic tyes of mice include African striped grass mice (Zebra Mice), African Pygmy Mice and Harvest mice. The availability of these may depend on the laws in your country, and they require more specialised care than fancy mice. They are not often handleable so are pets more to observe than interact with.


Do pet mice get rid of wild house mice?

It depends. If it's male then it might lower the amount of wild mice but if they're female it will more than likely higher the amount due to the fact mice need to mate. But I'm not 100% sure and only saying what I know from experience with a different type of rodent as a pet (Pet Rats.) I would say that it probably won't do much when it comes to removing or lowing the amount of wild mice.
