Oh, yes, definitely!
We had one of those whoops litters, too. The son was 7 weeks old.
He also mated with one of his 7 week old sisters.
Only one of her 3 babies survived, but he is a beautiful red-eyed
Schimmel. He was the fattest baby I'd ever seen. We were very
worried, because his 2 siblings were stillborn and we thought he
might not get enough milk.
But he certainly did (must have been one of the few exceptions)!
