What do you feed a wild baby mouse with closed eyes?

Answer 1

Answer
Well if you find a baby mouse with no fur what you should feed it is luke warm puppy or kitten milk (not cow milk, that can cause diarrhea) using a syringe. If you don't have a syring, you can use a piece of string until you can get one, just soak it in the milk until a drop forms at the end. If the baby mouse does not drink it take it to the closest RSPCA.

Answer 2

A baby mouse will open its eyes at thirteen days old. Baby mice are weaned of their mothers milk at four weeks. So you should continue feeding it formula if it dosent have its mum. At three weeks you should introduce mouse food from the store to help wean them off the milk.

Answer 3

I would assume just some type of milk formula especially made for mice that you can buy at a pet store. (Closest thing to mother's milk.) Being so young, they could not eat anything solid yet.

Answer 4

Break an egg yolk (not the white) into a cup of milk, mix it up. Warm up a syringe full in a cup of hot water. The baby may take one to two drops every 20-30 minutes. A syringe may even be too big.

Keep it warm, a pouch in your shirt pocket works, or a small container with a cloth and a warm lamp over head. TOO hot and it will die, so not too close.

As it gets older or if it looses hair you can blend cat/dog food in the milk mixture. Even some acorns. (definitely needed with squirrels).

Answer 5

In the veterinary or a animal/pet shop you can get a dry mixture which you just add water and with that you should get a thing mouth tube which you just insert into its mouth and it should suck the mixture through until it has had its feed.

Answer 6

When they are newborn mice and their eyes aren't open yet, then you feed them kitten formula from an eye dropper. Make sure none gets in their nose or they will die. :( Also press a warm, wet Q-tip to their bottom to help them go to the bathroom. If they have no fur, people say they are hard to keep alive. But the other day I was walking home from school, and there was a newborn mouse in my garage with his eyes still closed and the umbilical cord still in. I named him Algernon. We took him to the vet and he is just fine. He is doing extremely well. So if some people tell you that they won't live, remember this story because when I was reading on how to care for them on this site, they said that they wont live if their abandoned so I got scared for Algernon. But he is just fine, so don't be scared too. :) Besides, mice are pretty smart creatures!
