of course new born babies needs water as any other human being does. However babies get the water they need by means of their mother breast feeding.

Usually the mother of the hamsters wouldn't let them near their babies...

Like any other mammal. The babies are born live, then after four weeks they leave their mother.
Are other female guinea pigs ok in the cage with guinea pig babies and the mother?
I would not recommend it. Just have the Mother Guinea Pig in with her babies separately. Sometimes the other guinea pigs can get excited and accidentally stomp the babies to death so best to keep Mom & babies separate.
What do you do with baby hamsters if the mother ate some already?
You take care of the other babies by putting them in separate cages. DON'T TOUCH THE BABIES UNTIL THEY HAVE HAIR. The mother probably ate some of the babies because: 1. She felt threatened. 2. She might have needed more protein. Other reasons the mother may eat the babies is if the litter is too large for the mother to care for all the young or if the babies have already died on their own. Are you sure the mother actually killed them?
How long should the father rabbit stay away from mother and babies?
Until the babies are grown enough to leave the mother and separated into other cages. If you reintroduce the father he may get jealous of the attention the mother is giving to the babies and hurt the babies or kill them because he isn't getting the attention. Also, if you reintroduce the father when the babies are grown, the father might mate with the mother AND the females of the litter and then OOPS... more babies!
Are guinea pigs safe around newborn babies?
you should only have the mother housed with young piggy babies. other adult piggies may trample the babies or the mother could eat them when they are born because she feels they are not protected enough... the babies can be housed with other adults/babies when they are weaned at 4-5 weeks if you are talking about human babies, it is probably best to keep them away... the baby could hurt it or the piggy could hurt the baby by scratching it etc.
How soon after a guinea pig delivers babies can you put others in the cage?
Not until the babies are weaned. This is safer because the mother will protect them and may fight other pigs. Never put a male in with a female with babies.
Will a pregnant rabbit kill her babies if there are other rabbits in near by in other cages?
No, She will not kill her babies, but you have to make sure that the other rabbits do not trample on her nest. The does are usually jealous of another doe having babies. Be very carefull that the nest is protected that only the mother has the access to it.
If your rat has babies do you need to separate them?
No. Leave the mother & babies together, but if there are other rats, take the other rats out. Mum & bubs need to stay together, otherwise the bubs will die.
