Mira's kits are 6 1/2 weeks old. They are eating and drinking on their own. They occasionally try to nurse, but Mira smacks them away. When the kits are eight weeks, do I just remove them and put them in their own cage? The boys will be weaned together, and housed together as well. I was going to keep them a week after weaning, before sending them to their new home. I want to make sure they are adjusting. Is it suggested to keep them longer? With the female kit, Marika, can she just remain with Mira? I plan on keeping Marika as a companion for Mira.
