Thanks~i hope the pups can survive and able to growth up. My hammy is WW. the daddy is so aggressive and hungry+ham sap. keep chasing the mom so i separate him from the family and leave it alone so he keep jumping in the new tank and trying to escape from there.(i feel so guilty,hehe)
can any one share a picture-how to differentiate the sex becoz i wan separate the them once they growth up to avoid breeding again-

Separate once they reach 5 weeks old. By that time, you can tell the difference between female and males....

i dunno if it works on all hamster...but i put sandbath in it..at 1st my ww play with the sandbath..then after they pee in it, they make it as toilet..dun get me wrong, they only pee in it..but pooping anywhere the wan to lol

thank you..
i want to try la some time..
especially for my female WW.. she usually pees at the tank conner..

i think better separate male from female la.. nanti asyik mengawan je..
after 2 weeks, have another new pups..

If you do not separate, the female will keep on getting pregnant and breed till her body deteriorates, her health weaken and she dies before she is 1 year old.... that is something serious coz the body can cage during breeding and having babies. So logically thinking, which is better? Control the breeding and not control the breeding?

i mean that we dun need separate them to prevent the daddy eat the kidz..but separate them to prevent over breeding..am i right?

actually both can be a problem..either the dady eat the lil or the mother will get pregnant again..

Yea, so thts why i wan to separate them. suddently i feel tht i started to respect my mummy hamster. It really take good k of her pups, so touched. i swear i will treat them very very nice. I will share the faimily photo after this^^

Anyone tell me, 3 weeks old baby hamster can eat what?
i feed them vege supplement, but seem they dont like eat, normal hamster food they cant bite....
how? feel they getting skinny.
i separated them with mummy hamster adi.

three weeks old already separated..

usually at this age i give them "soft food".. eg: carrot, sengkuang, and some fruits..

afterwards, they try eating the solid things..
if i feed their mom mixed-food, they menyibuk curi-curi that food..

Sometimes it prevents both parents from killing their babies. And it prevents uncontrolled breeding.

Good. Awaiting your lil family photo.

3 weeks old? Who told you to separate from the mom at 3 weeks old? It should be 4 weeks....
