for their first meal, how long should you leave a live rodent in with them before giving up and pulling it out again. 1hr, 2 hr, 3 hr? overnight?

Put the fuzzy/pinky in with them in the evening. Then leave them overnight. If they're not gone the next morning, remove them.
Most babies will eat a live fuzzy/pinky on the first try. Some will not. Most times they'll take food more readily at night. If you're lucky yours will all take food on the first try.
