i have a large litter at the moment the mother wouldnt settle and started killing them so i tried to put another female who had just weaned a litter in with them she took them on and feeds them they are really really small but there eyes are open now and are still really small is there anything additional i can give them to build them up and put some size on them thanks

Are they eating solid food well? How old are they?

I use lactol dried puppy milk for my just weaned litters and pregnant/nursing mums. Sprinkle it dry over thier food.

to be honest i havent seen them eating solids at all they are 15 days old but real small

If they are not eating for themselves yet, then is nothing you can give them directly... but you can add the lactol to the mothers diet who are nursing them.
Also mealworms (live not dried) are good for protien too. scrambled egg aswell.
