You are supposed to put him in a cage next to the female and babies but not with them. I have bred hamsters and have made that mistake.

Should you buy your hamster a companion since it is lonely?
You should not buy your hamster a companion.If your hamster is a dwarf hamster then you shouldn't because they weren't raised together and they may tend to fight. If they were raised together then it wouldn't be a problem. If you own a teddy bear hamster also known as the Syrian hamster you wouldn't be able to have a companion in the cage with them even if they were raised together. Once your Teddy Bear hamster has mated then you should remove the male hamster because he may eat the young. Especially after the mother has given birth you should keep the father separate or any other male hamster because as soon as she has given birth she goes into heat again and they will mate again and in a few days she will give birth again. Teddy Bear hamsters are sometimes known for eating their young. If your hamster has young then once they are weined from their mother's milk then you should remove them from the cage because she may eat her young.
Do lions eat their young?

Does a female hamster need a male hamster?
A female hamster shouldn't even be in the same cage as a male hamster,unless you are trying to breed them.If they are together the male will naturally try to mate with her,it doesn't matter to him that she might not be in heat. If a female isn't in heat she will attack any male that is in the cage with her.Also if you are putting 2 hamsters together with the intention of breeding you should always hand breed. Hand breeding is when you wait until the female is in heat and you put her and the male in neutal territory. Always wear gloves and have a ruler handy so that if need be you can separate them from fighting,although this rarly happens.After they actually start to mate supervise them for 40 minutes and then put both back in their own cages.Approximately 16 days later you should have babies. They don't.
