    Cleaning with new babies.

    So my momma had three babies last weekend and I need to clean their cage when can I move her and the babies with out causing her to do anything bad? She's a first time mom and my first time breeding so I don't wanna handle the babies to early and have her kill them or ignore them

    Ours don't seem to be bothered by moving for cleaning. But we have some very good natured mellow mommas right now.

    I like to clean momma tubs as soon as she's done giving birth, I've never had a female reject a baby even after handling the babies the same hour they are born.

    I usually put a bit more bedding towards the back of the tub and make a next and put the pinkies into the nest and then replace momma.

    I know their all so cute I decided since its first litter I can't kill them off the females will stay with me and the males are going to my neighbor from his wife for Christmas haha. That's why I'm hoping the stripes are the girls I have the blues but not striped blues it's fun watching them grow this last week

    Would the ones that are the blue hooded with skin showing maybe be hairless there? Or does white show up when they get bigger?
