They're your average fancy mice (mus musculus) or technically the house mouse, but domesticated. I have very little knowledge of mouse coat type, but I think they're satins, hence why they're so super shiny! Their coloration appears to be recessive yellow, as I know lethal yellow is rare, but still I'm going to watch for health issues. For a breakdown on each
Shrew: Recessive? Satin Yellow
Red-eyed mouse (no name): Recessive? Satin Yellow with pink eye dilute
White head (no name): Recessive? Satin Spotted yellow
I'm going to do a bit more research into their colors and genetics before saying anything too confidently
