I have two females together, one of which is enormously pregnant. I've heard about mice eating their young, and I really want to know under what conditions they would do this. I really would like to do whatever I can to prevent this, so anything on why and under what circumstances a mother mouse would eat it's young, please share. Also, I have another female in there, because I've heard that they help the mother with care. Would the other female hurt the babies at all? Thanks.
