1. 21-22 days

2. Optional - however I do mine every 3 months

3. Some people have different ideas of this, and depends whether they are allowed to rest between litters. I give my females 2-3 weeks rest, so they will most likely be stilling breeding at over a year old.

4. Again some people have different opinions. The longer they are with mum, they get more of a growth boost and nutrients from her milk. Generally 3-4 weeks though.

5. Usually around 10-12

6. I assume you mean with the babies? If she is a good mum, most should be fine. However its often best to take away some babies if she has more than she can handle, this will reduce the pressure on her, and allow the remaining babies to thrive.
