Any tips beside pregnant hamsters?
Give me any tips you have for pregnant hamsters, Like caging and bedding, What are the sings that its pregnant, How long will it be pregnant, what are some good names for babies, How long should i not touch them for? ANYTHING! Well i in truth know a lot about it but i want to know as much as possible. Thanks :]
Make sure you have a big cage. If you don't the momma hamster will bite you when you try to nurture it. I learned the hard way. I be bleeding for hours. Not to freak you out or anything.

I am tired of seeing people such as these...look here,if someone aks a question,ANSWER IT.Don't oration.God...
My tips:
oSYRIAN HAMSTER
If you have a syrian hamster,remove the female from the male or any other hamsters.
The enclose should be well ventilated.A good plastic storage box is a appropriate temporary cage for the pregnant mom.
Give the pregnant hamster some tissue paper and other soft papers for her to use for her bedding nest.
Give her some tofu,cheese,milk and greens to offer her enough vitamins for giving birth.
A female syrian hamster would be pregnant for about 15.5-18 days.
Do not touch the babies at least possible 3 weeks after they are born.It could lead to the mother eating her pups.
Do not stare for a long time at the mother and her kits.It will stress her thus,again,cause cannibalism.
The pups will be ready for giving away at 4 weeks of age.Separate the sexes by then.
Remove deceased kits as soon as you see them.
oDWARF/ROBOROVSKI
*same with the said info except...
she will be pregnant for roughly 20-30 days.
do not remove her from the other females that she has in her cage.They will facilitate her nurse the pups.

Answers: Why are you breeding? Think about it. Breeding is not a hobby... it's not a matter of just putting a male and womanly animal together. Mess with the wrong genes and breed the wrong animals and you could end up with some massively sick babies. Do you know the mom and dad's genetic/health history at least three generations back? Pet store animals should never be bred, you know nought about their health background. It doesn't situation if they seem healthy presently or the vet gave them a clean bill of health... it's what's surrounded by their genes. There are more than enough small animals in shelters and rescues without more poorly bred ones mortal added to the overpopulation. There's a lot more to breeding responsibly than you might think. Please read and make a responsible edict:

Well give them a little house that the mom can go into and furnish birth.
