Answer
Hi,

I am in the middle of a rat emergency so I am going to make this quick but easy for you.

Keep them together. Mom mouse will thank you.

Find the site thefunmouse.com or it might be funmouse.com (addy in my profile too). Click on Mouse Information. There is a huge section on breeding.

If you didn't get her within the last three weeks, a male wild mouse got into the cage. The babies will be crazy. If you can hold them 2-3 times a day, they will be sweet.

Best of luck and enjoy the little babies!!
