These are when they were a day or couple of days old, this is 3 litters as the other litters hadn't been born.



Here they are at 5 and 6 days old 3 litters here, we have a little runt who seems to have put on a bit of weight today hopefully will be ok but we are keeping the little runt anyway known as runty at the mo.
Also one of the mums or the babies have bitten off one of the other babies front leg hand so is left with a stump everything is dry and clean so hopefully it will heal, had this happen many years ago when we were breeding baby hamsters and we kept the 3 and a half legged hamster so we will be keeping the one with the stumpy leg aswell.



These are 1 and 3 days old 2 litters in here.



We have alot of what looks like black and whites, also lilac's, lilac and white, possibly a white maybe a couple of himi's but we shall see.

Hi Maze thanks I know so cute isn't it. I know poor little mouse but they manage well with 3.5 legs he/she won't have known any different and won't remember having had a foot because of being so young. The only things you have to watch for is bars, steps and their nails because of being unbalnced but we have done it before with a hamster and having a mouse with a stump is ok with us so he/she is staying anyway.

Here are up to date piccies of our babies taken tonight. One mum we've had to pull out she's gone very skinny think she has exhausted herself feeding the babies she's not eating etc we are taking her to the vet tommorow got some brilliant advice from a friend. We put her in with the older female babies she already knows these 2 I got from a friend and took one of the mums from the total of 29 babies in the cage and put her in with the 12 babies to give those babies a better chance as they are alot smaller.

These are the 29 babies




The 12 babies
