Time to pull the kits from their Mommies...

[Frecs]

Jumpp's kits are 6 weeks old and Country Mile's are 5 weeks. Time to start removing them over to the grow out cage.

Should I pull all at once? Jumpp's first and then add Country Mile's later? or some other system?

Does can get sore teats from engorgement if the kits are pulled all at once.

I usually pull 1/4 of the litter the first day, and 2 days later another 1/4 untill the whole litter is out in 6 days.

Should I anticipate any problems mixing the two sets of kits together in one grow out pen?

At 5 and 6 weeks, though, it's pretty likely that they aren't nursing much, if at all, any more.

You should be able to mix the two litters. Just watch for problems, but they're unlikely. If the pen is on the small side when they grow larger, you may have some bullying, as in any single litter. Some boxes and such should help with that.
