u/Funfetti-Mouse

alright time for my oddly specific situation: I have 3 girls, Mochi, Mooncake, and Mocha.

mochi and mooncake are genuinely the sweetest girls, they can be a little skittish but they love to run around outside the cage and, generally, trust me.

Mocha, however, absolutely despises me. Before recently she would just tail rattle at me but now she has begun to lunge at my hand/fingers if it is anywhere near her OR her sisters. (She also squints and sneezes if I’m near her? I don’t think it’s a URI as she’s not making any weird noises when she breathes and is otherwise normal if I’m further away + it’s dark)

Mochi recently gave birth to a large litter (unintentionally bought her while pregnant), so the mice are definitely more defensive of territory, but is Mocha’s behavior something I should be concerned about, or just normal shy mouse behavior?

I have also only had the girls for about 2 weeks

happy mothers day and birthday to Mochi & her pups respectively! (accidental litter, I got mochi when she was pregnant unknowingly) what do I do? I scrambled an egg for her a few minutes ago and left it outside her nest + some bits in her regular food bowl. I quite frankly thought I had more time to prepare before she gave birth haha..

My girls eat Oxbow adult rat food and have constant access to water through a water bottle (usually they have a bowl too, but I took that away due to concerns about the pups drowning.)

Her two sisters are in there with her and seem to be helping, they are in a Prevue 528, I removed all their wheels since I saw they can be dangerous? is there anything else I should do or just leave Mochi to handle the pups?
