There are usually five to ten mice in a litter. The young are born without hair or teeth and are blind and deaf. After a week the hair begins to grow, and after ten days the baby mice can see and hear. From about two weeks teeth begin to grow and the young mice can nibble at solid food.
While they are little, the young mice are cared for by their mother. She cleans and feeds them and keeps them safe. After they are four weeks old they can look after themselves.
Pet mice can live for 2 - 4 years.
dont touch or hold them until they have their eyes open and fur
good luck!!=)
DO NOT CLEAN THEIR CAGE OR TOUCH THEM UNTIL THEY ARE 2 WEEKS OLD.

Most "pet shop" mice produce small litters of about 3 to 12 babies. There are some laboratory breeds of mice that produce litters of up to 25 babies every 28 days

About 15 [i've seen as many as 30]
Mice are very good breeders and can have many litters in a little amount of time.
They reproduce better then bunnys.
Watch out.
Next thing you know your gonna have 100 criters running around...

Mice get a lot of babies in a litter (anything from one to 32) depending on the age and size of the doe.

8-12 on average but can be more
be aware they can breed as soon as they give birth and it takes only 19-21 days gestation
