Newborn mice. Before their eyes open or fur come in, they are pinkies because their skin is pink. Great source of protein from what I hear, but I've raised my fair share of litters, so I could never do that.

a "pinkie" is a small hairless mouse that most snakes eat. mice go up in sizes like: pinkies, fuzzies (double the size of a pinkie with hair just starting to grow), half grown mice and full grown. i hope my info has helped.

Pinkies are the newborn stage of rodents. Their eyes and ears are still shut and they are almost hairless, with the exception of whiskers and maybe some "peachfuzz".

Newborn baby mice. I buy mine killed and frozen, thaw them in warm water, and feed them to my baby cornsnake. Frozen and thawed prey is much safer for the snake that live.

these are baby mice that are so young, they have yet to grow fur or open their eyes, they're very small compared to a quarter. you can find them in the frozen section of your pet store like petco or go to rodentpro.com

they are baby mice that were just born and don't have any hair yet so they are pink, hence the name, pinkie!
