I found a baby mouse....

Maybe Sweet potatoes also mixed in with the formula to give extra protein

You know for sure it was the mother?

95% sure since it was caught one room over. As far as we know that was the only mouse in the house because we spotted it and caught it a few hours later. Then a day later there was a baby sitting out in the open on the carpet crying. I don’t know I just kind of put the two together especially after another one was found in the exact same spot as the first one.

I'd just put feed down and set them free. They will eat the food you provide and once ready they will disappear.

Will they be okay? I mean their eyes aren’t open yet.

Yes. They are going to be fine. If they are up and moving around they will be okay. You can set up a little house with a nest where you found them and provide the feed.

Some people use a paintbrush, a very small one, to soak and feed the mice milk

That's good. I've read that they can have evaporated milk. No idea why regular milk is so different, lol.

Usually evaporated milk has more fat and calories than normal milk, because most of the water is boiled off, increasing the fat content of the milk and concentrating the calories.

They didn’t like the paintbrush. Instead they just kind of just spread it everywhere.

I know it sounds mean but rodents carry diseases... I personally wouldnt keep them, I’d feed them to my bearded dragon... up to you though. How’s the first baby doing?

Agree...I would not either but I’m not fond of rodents. Where there is one there is always a lot more!

Especially when you live in the woods! Lol mice are just annoying but if I ever see a rat I’m burning the house down.
