Who takes care of mice babies?

Answer 1

AnswerThe babies are born naked and their eyes are closed. The mother makes a nest out of anything that she can find. When they are born they are help less she feeds them and cares for them. If she feels that they are threatened she will move them. She feeds her babies like a mother cat feeds her kittens. She has little teats and she lays down to feed them and keeps them clean by licking their bottoms.

Answer 2

If a mouse has just given birth in a colony, she WILL nurse other litters. I see it all the time in my colony. Sometimes it's hard to tell who the mom is of what litter because they all help take care of each other's litters. So yes, mother mice will and do take care of other litters other than their own.

I have also taken orphaned mice and put them with mother mice and had her raise them as her own. Most of the time they will not kill them but sometimes you do get that crazy stressed out mouse that will kill even her own biological litter.

Answer 3

your mice might move her rats if she feels danger or if she is concerned something or someone might try to kill or even hurt her babies. I would also take away the male mouse because he will kill then eat the babies if there week or not strong for him.

Answer 4

The female mouse is the one who takes care of the young, the male will not stay with her. She cared for them until they are three weeks old when they are weaned and ready to care for themselves.
