I have field mouse babys the mother ran away! HELP WHAT SHOULD I DO! easy 10 points!!!?

Okay, if they are 10 to 12 days they should start eating solid food soon. You can try dabbing alittle kitten milk (which you can buy at pet stores) on your finger and try to let them lick the milk off your finger. If they do lick it off your finger try dabbing a paper towel in milk then let them drink it off that. Let them drink it off the paper towel for about 2 minutes each every 2 to 4 hours. They should start eating solid food in 2 to 6 days. Pretty soon when they are about 4 weeks you need to separate the es so they won't inbreed. You can sell/give away the mice when they are 6 weeks. To feed them breed soak it in milk for a few mintes then feed it to them. To fine the mama put food around the house and water in small containers so she won't die of starvation or thurst, then check every day if you see food missing or water drunking. If there is food missing then close the door to the room where the mouse is missing and look carefully for the mama. you can also try sprinkling flour around the food and water to make sure shes been there. Another trick is you can tie a lon around a peanut and see if she will bring the peanut to her hiddin. Make sure all outside doors are closed. Another trick you can use is pile up a few book to make stairs that lead up to a fall into a bowl. Put lettuce in the bowl so it will attract the mama. So you stack up some books to make stairs, then put a bowl in front of thestairs causing the hamster to fall in the bowl sort of like a trap. Put lettuce in the bowl.
