Will my 1st time mom mouse eat her babies What if she does Should i hand-rear the abandoned until ol2007-11-24 22:20:06Answers:

let nature take its course...

if she feels that they are not safe she could eat them. first time moms are usually a little more unsure about raising their young so give her some space and let her do her thing for the first couple of days. just make sure that she has lots of food and a full water bottle.

Mine was fine when she had hers, except for one. It was born with a birth defect so she ate it. If she does, then there was something wrong. If they are abandoned, they are very hard to care for by yourself

i dont really know, but i heard that they only eat them if they are diseased, or disabled; like they have a sense for which ones are healthy or unhelathy. idk if this is true. but do some research, i would say let her do what she wants; it natural even if it is disgusting

no she shouldn't unless she's hungry or if they are sick.

get two cages put the babies in a small one and put the mom mouse in another
