    Questions on breeding mice (first time breeder)

    Ok let me first start by saying I'm new here
    second i want you all to know i breed rats before i ask these questions.
    So for breeding mice the proper temps are 70-75?, is 72 good?
    A ratio of 1.4 should produce good?
    Can i put prego mom in a birthing cage with other prego moms or moms that already have pups like you can rats?
    If not can i leave the males in with the pups?
    I've read on here alot that the main reason females don't get prego is because a blank shooting male?
    Now here is how I plan on keeping them, I already have 2 zytem mouse size cages can 1.4 fit in those if not what ratio can?
    I also plan on using some 10 gal tanks til I need a rack.
    Should i go ahead and start building a rack cause i wanna breed alot of mice but first I wanna start kinda small like 3 colonies than work my way up quickly with homegrown babies so how fast can i produce starting with 3 1.4 colonies like whats the fastest if they are full potential breeding? sorry for all the questions I've just had alot of mice breeding failures so I wanna get it right.
