Weaning age??

Hi, umm, I have 14 mouse pups all together and they are 2 weeks old starting 4/27/09. Some people say I should wean them at 3 weeks, some say 4 weeks, and others say 5 to 6 weeks. I want to wean them at an age to wear no ones gonna get pregnant by each other. 0.o I’m going to keep the 8 female pups with the mom. They are going to be with other mice to though, nutered males and other unknown females. Will they still try to nurse? They all have there ears open. 2 dont have there eyes open but 12 do have them open. Help?
