When will I get baby mice?

Ok here's the deal. At the beginning of March I bought two female white albino mice and a male from a big breeder and am keeping them in a 10 gallon with plenty of food and vanilla flavored water (for smell). I want to raise enough to feed my ball python as well as selling some to a friend who has some king and milksnakes. So far the only one getting fat is my male, the females have not even gotten pregnant as far as I can tell. I have tried getting another male, in case the one I got is sterile and have had him for about three weeks, and nothing has happened. I fed them lab food for about two weeks, and am now feeding them guinea pig food (I raise them for pets). Could the lab food have made them sterile, or something wierd like that? I am pretty sure I should've gotten offspring by now, and am about to start feeding them to my snake and start over. What do you all think?

Any suggestions appreciated,
Taylor
