How many babies can a female mouse have at one time?
Female mice will mostly have from 6-12 babies at a time. Some Female might have more or less than that. There really is no right answer to this.
What should you do if your mouse just had babies?
You should not disturb the mouse at all. Leave her with her babies and let them bond and get used to each other. After three days, you can then look and pick up the baby mice, but remove the mother mouse from her cage, or she'll start moving the babies around.
Can mice have babies on their own?
As long as there is one male mouse and one female mouse in the same cage there will most likely be babies.
If your female mouse killed one of her babies should you take the others out?
no. the mother mouse would only kill its baby if it was dead or sick! if the others are healthy she will not kill them.
If the mother mouse doesn't feed her babies then what should you them?
You might be able to foster the babies with another nursing mouse, or even a female mouse who isn't nursing--mice are able to lactate when needed, but it might take awhile for that to kick in. You might have to foster the babies yourself. This site will tell you more: http://www.thefunmouse.com/info/orphanedmice.cfm.

Should a pregnant female mouse be separated from her cage mates?
Yes we had a pregnant mouse who was in a cage with 7 other female mice, so we put her in her own cage. When she has her babies, she will make a nest for them so make sure there is plenty of bedding. If you do not separate them the baby mice might be at risk, although a pregnant mouse can be kept in the same cage. If her babies are in the cage with other mice, she might nip and bite the mice to protect her babies though
Do mice have babies in the spring?
Mice can have babies whenever, not just in the spring. A female mouse ovulates every five days, or rather, can get pregnant every five days. Once a female mouse is pregnant, it will take about twenty-days for the baby mice to be born.
Your mouse had babies and one male is in there and he didn't do it with her should you leave him in there?
No! Any male mouse or rat will eat any mouse babies. dont let male mice with babies until they can see and have fur!
How many babies can mices have?
