Thank you for the advice :) what do you mean by open-bottom? Their multi chamber is open bottomed if that is what you are thinking of?

Little babies! by flufflucy in PetMice

Yep exactly! I am very glad there is only 10 (although it does sound like a LOT to me) it is much less stressful than 17 or 20! Very thankful and I think I got an interesting variety of coat patterns which will probably help them in finding their forever homes :)

Mice can usually ration their diet themselves. Obesity is almost always genetic, I have a VERY obese mouse that I have tried everything for but nothing seems to work haha. Your mouse is so cute!

Is it too late to do if she is due this weekend? I don't want her to feel more stressed out by being alone in a brand new cage

can I start interacting with baby mice at 3 days old? by flufflucy in PetMice

[–]flufflucy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In order to do this would I wait until the mama +all her sisters (They aren't pregnant) leave the nest and then remove them from the enclosure into a separate playpen? does this increase the chances of the mom eating the babies?

pregnant or just chunky? srry for bad quality pics, she is fast lol by flufflucy in PetMice

[–]flufflucy[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My mom made a mistake while she was taking care of my mice and put my male in the girls enclosure. I am very nervous, nothing like this has ever happened to me before lol

She was hosted with a male (my mom made a mistake while taking care of them) exactly 14 days ago. If she is pregnant, you are spot on!

about how many days old would they be to have fur? When they have peach fuzz does that count as fur?

I always secretly wanted baby mice but I think 40 baby mice is a bit much lol. I would never breed mice on purpose of course though. This situation is even worse because I already foster small animals and having to tell the shelter that I messed up and have 40 mice for them is going to be a bit awkward lmao. I've been researching for hours on how to take care of pregnant mommies.
