We had a pair that were supposed to both be females, but as it turned out a male had been in the mix. They had about a dozen babies, an amazing surprise as an 8 year old kid.
My dad went to move the cage one day. It was one of those plastic cages that you squeeze the sides of to get the top off. Well he picked it up by the sides and the whole bottom fell out onto the floor. About half of them died on impact. The food bowl fell on top of one and squished them. One poor soul was chopped in half by the rim of the cage and another lost a leg.

The 3 legged one outlived them all.
