Hi, wow your mouse Mom sure has her little hands FULL !
Its very difficult to keep tiny babes alive if you decide to fed any yourself. They must be feed HOURLY, around the clock, as they suckle from Mom, continuosly , when real young.

Unless you have another nursing Mom that may be able to feed some, I would just let her try and feed them. Make sure she is well feed herself, as this is alot on her as well.

Here is a link, you can read, about trying to take care of orphaned kids / without Mom.

I wish you all the best, and hope she will be able to manage them all ! Let us know how ya make out.

Wish I had a better answer for you !
