At six weeks of age is the earliest you can separate babies from their mother successfully. However, if at all possible I would suggest waiting at least 8-12 weeks especially, if you are not clear on the actual age of the babies...

Actually, mice can reproduce at 4 weeks of age, so it's best to separate them at 3-4 weeks of age. If you have any doubts, if your baby mice are trying to eat solid foods, you should be able to separate them in a day or two.

What is the deeper meaning of Mother freedom?

Mother Freedom is a reference to the United States. Since the beginning of the nations history, the U.S. has fought for freedom, not only for itself, but also for other countries. The U.S. is the first supreme power that fought for democracy and freedom for its citizens, hence, we don't have a king or rulers. We live in the land of the free, and we were the first country to establish that and are helping spread that freedom to other countries. That is the reason we are known as "Mother" Freedom, because we not only gave "birth" to it, but we are also "reproducing" it among other countries. Hope this helps.
