My mouse had babbies about 4-5 days ago. I woke up and found only 2, 1 dead and 1 alive. I had to go away foe a few days and left my brother at my house. While I was gone he fed her to my snake. I wasnt planning on that because I wanted her to raise the lil one. The baby is still alive, but I'm sure very hungry. Is there anything that I can do to try and save her? PLZ HELP ME!!!

Do you have any other nursing mice moms that you can put the pinky with? If not, it is very difficult to keep mice babies that young alive. You will have to feed it every hour around the clock as well as rub it's nether regions with a damp cloth. I think there is a more detailed process on how to rear orphaned mice.
