Rats and mice will often eat their children, if they are stressed or hungry, in nature this is the way there isn't overpopulation. If you own a mouse that is eating her babies put a towel over her cage and leave her alone, a stressed mother won't be happy to take care of her children. It's a bad idea to remove the mother since the pups need her milk. Check in on the mother and babies regularly to see if nothing is happening.
