One (or maybe two) of my pregnant mice dropped 15 young today while I was at work. When I came home to check on them I noticed that one of them had been ripped in half and was removed from the nest. Is this normal? Will it continue to happen? Is this a type of natural selection process that the mother mice institute?

Thanks in advance for your replies,
Anthony-
