Well I went to clean out the mice, I took everything out of the cage except the cute little nest the had made awwwww, then I grabbed some of the nest.... till I got to the pink babies. They are supposed to be all girls, now firstly I would like to say AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHH now thats better, I will need to know what to do with baby mice and pregnant mums , Ive given them their usual mix and added egg food , omg the mum will probably be pregnant again. Help someone even if its just to calm me down.

calm down....

you can do this, try not to disturb the nest for the first few days, after then i think it's like rats you can have a peek and hold them etc, make sure you wash your hands thoroughly first. at this point you could move them into something more suitable if you feel it necessary. As for sexing them out, if you don't feel confident doing this, you could take them to a local vet or indeed post some pics on here and we'll try and help you out.

If the male is still in there I would recommend looking at them all to see which is the male, again if you're not confident with this try and get some shots and we can help you.

Good luck, keep us posted on how they are doing and I would prepare yourself for another litter very soon, possibly more, depends really how many of the ther girls are preggers too.

If the adults come out I will try to catch hold of them if it isnt too upsetting to them, so it might take a day or two but I will get pics as soon as I can. Anyone want some baby mice? .
