I am glad that she had them at home and you can keep an eye on them. Your best bet at this point is to take the two deformed ones to the vet and have them put to sleep. Sweetie knows they won't make it and she has no intention of taking care of them. She will use her energy on the ones that are ok. Sounds cruel but that is her instinct. The little one that can't open his mouth is going to starve to death and the little one with no back legs may very well have some other major problems as well. At least ask your Vets opinion of the one with no back legs. Let us know how things are going.
