The little boys are four weeks old and ready to be separated into their own tank.
Mice can breed at an alarming rate so as soon as the males are four weeks old they need to be taken well away from the females. Eventually each little guy will need his own tank, but for now they will share. I will watch them closely and as soon as I see any fighting they will be separated. Male mice usually will fight to the death once they mature.
Note: when feeding peanut butter, make sure you mix it with vegetable oil before hand to make it less sticky and less likely to cause choking. Elderly and sickly mice should not be fed peanut butter, they are at greater risk of choking. Peanut butter is very fattening, so only in moderation. Mice sure love it though :)
