Thanks for all the support everyone. There were a few people with questions about my new troop, so here goes. First off I live in Canada so trading with anyone wouldn't work. There are 5 boys and 4 girls, they- like there parents are black some have white front feet and throats. they are 11 days old, I handle them everyday, I take 4 or 5 out and hold them while they sleep for about 1 hour, I think mom (Sweat Pea) appreciates it. Then I switch. Dad (Mr. Mouse) sits on the nest quite frequently and bathes them a lot. Both parents have been allowed the run of the kitchen a couple times a day since 5 weeks old and they also have a daily sand bath. I supplemented Sweet Peas' diet with high energy dog kibble when she was first seen to be sexually active. This I believe helped with the successful pregnancy of 9 pups and their survival. She also loves granny smith apples. Once again Thanks.
