The answer is: an egg (I looked it up). I would have thought a mouse could have found it.

Eggs haven't got windows in!

Yes, that is the point, therefore you cannot count them. Look it up!

Here's an easy one:-

Mike's mum has three children. She called the eldest Sunday and the second one Tuesday. What did she call the third one?

2nd child 2 days after Sunday, 3rd child 3 days after Tuesday, that makes Friday?

Here's a puzzle, not a riddle, very clever I think.

Easy peasy. Lift the LH one and pour the contents into the 3rd from right!

That would be right except 3, 4 and 5 are full of wine and 1, 2 and 6 are empty. So it's 4 which has to be poured into 1.
