Way too early, they still need their mothers milk. Rule of thumb is to separate males from mother by 5 weeks, or they just may get her pregnant again. Separate male from female siblings by 6 weeks for same reason. After 6 weeks the rats are good to go wherever, just keep them in groups or at least pairs. They are social animals and require companionship. It is unhealthy for them to be alone...
