You find some articles here, and also in the health section. I shall try and copy and paste some links.
A good tip is you do weigh them every day, in a electronic scale measuring in grammes. No absolute necessity if they are healthy and gain, but priceless the day there are any problems.... Also, a nice memory to give their adoption parents.
Yes, its normal mama takes some breaks. She usually rush back as soon she hears them protest. But dont let her outside the house!
Eyes opens typically aroung day 10-12, may be earlier, may be somewhat later...
Vets depends on, partly on what your vet prefer. Phone and ask his recommendations! This way you also establish a contact. Probably around week 8 for first shots, spaying a little later.
Not now immediately, if there arent problems. The first dewormings you can probably do yourselves, but ask the vet which preparate he recommends.
I will return during the day with the links.
Good luck!
