What is a Female cattle that has not given birth?
Heifer.
Do cows only have udders after giving birth?
Not exactly. A cow, when she is a heifer, starts developing mammary tissue a few weeks before having her first calf (where she is actually called a first-calf heifer not a cow), and retains that udder throughout her life. A cow doesn't just all of a sudden not have an udder before giving birth or suddenly have an udder after giving birth--it doesn't work like that. Once she has an udder, she keeps that udder until she dies. Besides, a cow is a female mature bovine that has already had one or two calves and thus already has an udder. A heifer, on the other hand, is a female bovine that doesn't have a fully developed udder, not until she is close to calving (if she's been bred at the right time).

What should you do to the male mice well the female mice gave birth?
The male should have been separated from the female before she gave birth. But if you didn't do that, then the male should be separated before the female is done giving birth because females go into postpartum estrus (heat) after giving birth and can become pregnant again immediately. If the male is with her after giving birth, then she is most likely pregnant again. Back to back pregnancies can possibly kill the female or lead to babies less likely to survive.
