 Newborn mice require maternal olfactory cues to perform the first suckling episode ► A blend of volatile odors from the mother elicits the behavior ► The cues act as experience-dependent “signature odors,”

Baby mice mature rather quickly. Like all mammals, mice nurse on their mother's milk before moving to solid food (anything they can find in your kitchen). But mice are weaned just three weeks into their infancy. By comparison, most kittens stop nursing after eight to ten weeks.

 

How long do mother mice stay with their babies?

between 21 and 28 days

Mice are typically weaned from their mother between 21 and 28 days of age, or at 10 grams of body weight. However, some biochemical experiments need to be done before the weaning days, and the mother might cannibalize or ignore those manipulated pups.

 

 

Can a 2 week old mouse survive without its mother?

You have to wait for them to be old enough to wean. If you separate them before that, they will die. Baby mice are ready to wean at 21–26 days old; breeding pros usually separate the babies from mother at about 4 weeks old, so they KNOW they will survive being separated.

Do father mice stay with babies?

Fatherhood doesn't come naturally to these polygamous males, who would prefer to be out on the prowl for a new mate rather than tending to mouse pups in the nest. Female mice, however, have tricks for encouraging the often-absentee father of their offspring to care and get involved in child-tending, The Scientist ...11 Jan 2013

 

 

Simmons and Firman think they know why the polygamous males are more fertile. In previous experiments, they had analysed the sperm quality of the mice after only eight generations of mating. Males from the polygamous lines produced more sperm with better motility than monogamous males.20 Jan 2011
