Make sure to sex the pups (you are welcome to post pictures for help if you need it) and separate the males at 3 weeks. You wouldn't want any girls to get pregnant; say the very young male did impregnate any of the girls (sisters or mother), the fact that he and possibly the female(s) are so young and the fact that they are related increase the chances of stillborns/miscarriage and the death of the mother during labor/after giving birth. Make sure you sex them correctly this time.

One is a female and the other is a male, I've already sexed them. I will separate the male once he is 3 weeks old, but how old does he have to be before I can neuter him?

Most vets won't do a neuter before four months or so.

But you can't put both males in the the females even if they're fixed. What you could do is not neuter the males. They could live in one cage, the females in another. That would save you money, and them from the trauma of the surgery.

Alright I'll figure out a way to make another cage for the males. Here is a better look at the pups though if anyone wants to see.

Pups are so cute. All of them. [MENTION=39525]Pitterpatter[/MENTION], that top one, I want to name peanut butter. Normally I go for actual human names (no kids, so I just name my pets as if I gave birth to them by surrogate) but seeing that top one, wow. Wish I could adopt that one!
