I just found out that one of my mice (which I was certain was male and the pet store assured me it was male) is pregnant! My mother doesn't want anymore rodents in the house (I have 2 rats, 4 mice, and a hamster) but I don't want to give them to the pet store because they will just then become feeder mice. I don't know what to do!!

Only thing you can do is put ads up in the local newspaper, ask friends and neighbours who would like a pet mouse. It will also be a good ideal to learn how to sex rodents yourself as must petstore employees are very bad for that.
Male mice once they are 4 weeks old, have noticeable testicles. Also their anus and urethra is much further apart than in a female mouse. Female mice also have nipples which are very easy to see.
