A mouse walking backwards looks amazingly cute.

[@frankprior9376]

It's useless. Just feed the mouse, that's it.

[@NanaBorderCollie]

I am tremendously sorry to hear of Brösel's passing! Her and Grimaldi have been my personal favourites of yours to watch. My sincerest condolences.

[@ck7097]

I love your videos and you seem like a really nice person

[@xxdragonhdxx2983]

Did he die???

[@CreekValleyCritters]

Broesel was so amazing, losing her would have been really hard, a once in a lifetime mouse. How are you doing? Hope you are O.K. No videos in a long time, I miss them.......

[@jaemcdonald6555]

I love the sound of their feet when they walk backwards. ❤️

[@michaelxmckinlay]

Thank you for taking the time to display this, We all appreciate it. A heartfelt cry goes out to you for Brosel. Thank you.

[@kimchigerbil7437]

you have the smartest babies and it was a delight to see all of them in this video. i have had mice and rats but unfortunately not patient enough to train them. you have a true gift. maybe you ought to change your name to The Rodent Whisperer! LOL!

[@14mspickles]

Oh no! So sad to hear of Brosel. She was my favorite mouse. I wait months to see your new videos, and loved anything with her in it. Sorry for your loss!

[@sergettefortin6912]

Waaaaaah!🦙

[@joahwinkler1843]

I can’t believe how smart mice are💕

[@petco]

This is incredible! Good job!

[@Peacedonkeys]

omg this is awesome, love your videos!

[@cs231951]

R.I.P. Brösel. She was adorable and such a smart mouse. :( I'm sorry to hear that she passed. There won't be another like her.

[@justbambi5181]

Es ist toll zu sehen wie die Mäuse daran so spass haben!

[@sammieplayzminecraft976]

[@chihuahuapino]

Super Tutorial!

[@user-we1si7jr6x]

Спасибо Вам за Ваш труд. Это же надо так.

[@SaelPalani]

RIP Brosel. Beautiful Mouse.!

[@jessicagurney9142]

I'm so sorry for your loss. I know I will be very sad when my mouse dies

[@scumbag576]

I like how one mouse gets a treat and then like 3 more appear out of nowhere.

[@angeleasfeathers]

Bravo!

[@CassidyAnimator]

Your mice are so cute!🐭

[@mangoesaredelicious4622]

thats pretty awesome

[@PeggyHogan]

The think I like the most about this video is how all of the mice get a chance to play. Question, do mice ever get into resource guarding?

[@benew8302]

that mice must be fan of jackson... really cool moonwalk

[@susanggongjja]

What do you use for the clicker with both hands free? You are an amazing trainer btw.

[@MouseAgility]

Thanks! I use my tongue.

[@borjafdez.5878]

Very nice videos, please make more. And very sorry for Brösel :((

[@lpsnube8393]

Sää oot nii hyvä hiirien kouluttaja!

[@MrPoopDickJohanson]

That's awesome

[@tinyfreckle]

That is fricking adorable

[@alsasian]

I love it! :) Can we do this to multiple mouse at the same time?

[@dancepiglover]

If they go backwards on a cue (like saying a certain word), they might all do it at the same time. The tricky part would be handing out the treats to each one fast enough.

[@benzyny21]

Lovely mice. Love the fact you don't keep them in a cage :)

[@jameslong4012]

I got all size of this creature which I hates so much. It went through all my foods, it ate through my walls, it chews through woods and got in all my kitchen cabinet, it ate my cloths, it even chew the lid and the rims of all my plastic buckets that I used to store my foods in to prevent them from eating the foods supply, and it chews on everything. We used metals to seal all the holes but it just chew on the woods that has no metal. There was one hole the size the size of a part of the light bulb. It fit just right so I broke off glass part and screw it in place and I used a hammer and nailed it down. I cleaned the place to clear out the droppings and it's scents so that it can't find it's way back. I used woods and nailed shut other place it used to go into this place. I was getting ready to mice proof that place. When I was ready to store my stuffs I found out that light bulb has been removed. I knew that had to be a bigger one but I only saw the little one and the babies. My shoes new and old shoes they ate them all. My home is very clean and we learned not to invite it in by taking precautions. The God damn creatures came from my neighbors one door down from me. My next door neighbor was complaining to me that he had mices and said to me that his next door neighbors has lots of mices and that the home is very dirty. My outdoor trash cans are place in a wooden box made with metal sheets nailed on the outside to prevent them from chewing in. But it found other ways to get into our home. All the walls are inspected and repaired with cements patch. We had to put in a second layer of wall. We learned it came from our car garage door. During the time the garage door are opened it came through. We removed all objects stored in the garage to see the activities. The Entrance door in our garage has metal sheets nailed on both sides. The surrounding walls are cement blocks. We still found mices living with us and it walks like it is our pets. The children in our home was saying " It thinks it is our pet because it walks with us " We tried it all and nothing seems to worked. So we moved out. The children still talks about it after 7 years passed. We used all kinds of methods to try to get rid of them but with no success. We did found one method that worked. We reused one of the method got used tricks. It did worked but it seems the rats got smarter and we lost the war and moved out. I am determines to win this war by going back to live there. The home has been emptied for more than fives years. My parents has went back to check it out and the place was full of rats droppings. There are no foods in that place so why does it lived there? I learned after years of moving out that there was a huge holes opened at the basement that has been broken I believed by my other side of the neighbors. And I think it came from this next door neighbors. They are very dirty people. There were more than 20 peoples living in that resident of three bedrooms. The weekly garbages from that home is horrible sight to see. I took some pictures of my next door neighbor dumping their trash onto my side of property. The damages done to our property drained a lot out of our saving. And these neighbors are responsibled for them. This is one creature that I wish God didn't created it. Not a fan of rats or mice. They are literally a homewrecker. Is there a way to train these rats and mices to leave me alone LOL. I left foods so that it wouldn't chews my foods and things. That didn't worked either. I played loud music and all it got me was my neighbors moved out. It wasn't my bad neighbors that moved out. Just the good one.

[@startazz]

Arr bless little Brosel is no longer with us and it was such a smart mouse who could do most of what you asked of it,i liked the basketball trick my self. Thanks for sharing.

[@lais-lika]

[@moose4036]

My mouse is not interested in any treats I give to him. I mean I taught him to pull a rope primarily with the reward of being held

[@SirPraiseSun]

ahh yes i always needed to teach my mice better footwork for muay thai thank you for this

[@emeliehensfelt6797]

wow! can I do this with any mouse or are yours extra-clever or something? :)

[@ChicoCreeper]

I'm sorry to hear about our little friend passing

[@hannahsmith5424]

How long are your training sessions?

[@ritaf4253]

is the clicking noises noises u make or just their nails on the floor?

[@crazygerbils2870]

Wow that's a cool trick

[@crazygerbils2870]

My Mice will probably never do this trick

[@doublenaut443]

Are mice a good pet option for a kid I am 12 and want to get one so I can have a pet

[@karlakolumna718]

Eine Frage. Ardaile Terrier sind doch Rattenfänger, wie hast du Uri beigebracht, gar nicht auf die Mäuse zu achten?

[@ludvik926]

This is why i want a mouse

[@samtae6217]

ALDAVLOGS You should inform yourself about keeping fancy mice. 1. You need at least 3 mice if you want them to be happy and a cage which is big enough, too. (100x50x50 for small groups) 2. They aren't toys and sometimes they will never become hand tame. It is pretty careless when mice are forced to do Mouse Agility (for example when they aren't able to go back to the cage). And if the mice are sick it will be very expensive for you.

[@pancholefty7766]

Please teach us some more mouse training like fetching balls or jumping or calling by their names...

[@Akatipirt]

BTW, how you Click with both hans busy? You make the "Clicking" sound with your mouth?

[@MouseAgility]

Yes, it's a tongue click.

[@vouduska]

we will miss you Brösel

[@jegerskudaover18]

I don't know if you a going to see this, but do you make that sound with your mouth?

[@CharlyHbg]

Mach´s gut, hübscher Brösel!!!

[@raymondy9636]

Aww theres a cute mice

[@leviatube961]

Amazing! Sorry, what is the clicking noise? Also can you do this with gerbils? Thanks

[@QuranwithRain]

It’s called a clicker. You click it when your pet does something right and it helps with the training process. If you don’t have one you could use a bottle cap with those seals.

[@leviatube961]

i just got one! My gerbils are very young still, 5 weeks old, can I try to train them already? Also I'm worried about the amount of treats required as they are high in fat and especially one seems to be getting chubby very fast, any tips for low fat treats? How many treats do you use per trainining session? Sorry for all these questions but it's so so fascinating and inspiring :)

[@QuranwithRain]

sorry if I'm replying too much. You can train them! Actually, the younger, the easier it is too train. Just make sure they're strong enough to do the tricks. Treats are high in fat. You could use healthy treats, or break up treats like carrot into really tiny pieces. You could also use their food mix as a treat and give the rest to them of their food after their training session. Whatever works best for you!

[@leviatube961]

Last question: do you recommend working with each one separately and keeping the other one at home?

[@QuranwithRain]

Well you said you were new at this, correct? So starting with one gerbil at a time would be best to not overwhelm yourself. Then you can move onto 2 gerbil since they are social creatures and it stresses them out less when you train them together. Also if one gerbil is good at tricks, the other can learn a lot faster from another gerbil than you. I also recommend having lots of patience since gerbils aren't as smart as hamsters or rats, but you can still train them, they just take longer. Good Luck!

[@CloroxBleach-yy2gt]

Oml this is adorable

[@SpartanLance]

next step: doing the moonwalk

[@drawrawaww]

xomg... I can't. XD they are too adorable !!!!!!!!!

[@jameslong4012]

Not a fan of rat or mice at all. But would sure love it if I can train all the mice and rats in my neighborhood to leave. Thanks for sharing. Cool. My home are very clean. We cleans the surrounding ground of our home with water every single day.

[@blueizclues2697]

How much do mice cost ?

[@kintice]

next to nothing :)

[@AnnasAnimalsPetCare]

From a reputable breeder, about $15-$30. NEVER buy from pet shops. Another great way to get mice is from a rescue :)

[@blueizclues2697]

Anna's Animals ok but why not pet shops, i won't but just wanted to know

[@AnnasAnimalsPetCare]

$5 or free from a breeder might be for your average chocolate or Siamese doe, but if you are buying show quality mice the costs rise up and above. Most "real" breeders only breed show quality mice and humanely cull any mice born so they don't detract from the health of the others. They don't do this for money, they do it so the ones that are more likely to live and have better traits end up healthier. If a breeder near you is selling mice for $5 a piece I might look into where they're getting their breeding stock and if they're breeding for food or pets. Never buy from a food breeder, the mouse's internal condition is never taken into consideration.

[@AnnasAnimalsPetCare]

I live in Oregon but have never purchased from Runaway, so I don't know either. My friend breeds show quality and charges $10-$25 per mouse depending on their coloring, temperament, etc. I guess every breeder is different though and depending on where you live mice have different prices.

Could Rats Do This To?

I'm pretty sure they can. It might be harder for them to go in between your fingers, although I have no idea how big a rat is exactly.. hope this helped.
