I discovered that my mouse has had babies the problem is that their eyes are closed but their fully furr:binkie: ed I have no clue how old they are. They are starting to crawl around in the house. I know I need to wean them at 21 days but I have no clue how old they are what do you guys think one has been starting to jump in the house but the rest are still pretty still and have closed eyes.
I agree with Sharni. When I bred mice that is when I separated them. I did leave the female babies with mom and she slowly weaned them herself. But you definitely should not leave the male babies in with her or their sisters much longer than 28 days. You wouldn't want pregnant babies. Good luck with your little mice.
I check on all my animals throughout the day several times. But when Mao got closer to her due date she'd hideout in the house and acted differently so I took her out cleaned out the cage and waited for her to give birth peacefully. The mice don't have their eyes open yet but I am sure they're about to.
wow that is cute
I was wondering myself how you missed that they were born..... That is cute that you gave her her space... I bet she gave birth the day you changed out her cage
is that what you estimate
now that thier eyes are open

Yeah I estimated the time frame and it had to have been a day or two after I cleaned the cage. I'll take more pics later it's kinda missing in action right now.
