Well, first of all make sure that it's mother left it. Keep a close eye out and if you see the mother, do nothing. If you are sure that it is orphaned and you can take it in and care for it, do so. If it's eyes are not open, it can not walk, and can not eat solid food then make a formula out of egg whites (just the whites) and milk, stir that and heat until slightly warm, test it on your wrist first then take in a little amount in a dog eye dropper, or something like a dog eye dropper, and slowly feed the baby mouse. Make sure to get a paper towel & clean it's mouth. Then wet a paper towel with slightly warm water & rub the baby's area of the body where both poo & pee come out. Make sure to massage gently, if not done the baby will die. Put micorwaveable rice in a sock & heat in the micorwave. Lay the baby mouse on the sock & rap the sock around the baby but not to tight & do not suffocate it! Keep doing all of these things until it can walk & its eyes are open then you can feed it solid food from the pet store. I hope it works out well!
