Will a female hamster mate if she is already pregnant?

Answer 1

No, she won't. After a hamster gets pregnant she does all she can to chase and scare away males, preparing for impending pups. She gets extremely aggressive right after her pups are born, so be careful no to put any males near her, and watch your own hand as well; she may see it as a threat. If a pregnant female hamster was to mate while the pregnancy, it is likely that the unborn babies will be either damaged or even dead when born.

Answer 2

You'll notice that she'll be eating and storing more food than the usual. She also might get a little bit aggressive. You won't notice the baby bump until the very end, like 4-6 days before giving birth.

Answer 3

Of course they can but usually it'll only happen while she's still in heat sometimes males will try but if they aren't careful they could get tied in knots.

Answer 4

no, but you must take the male hamster away from the female hamster

Answer 5

Well, I'm not sure if they fight, but I do know they get nasty and may bite (they probably will).

Answer 6

No, they only mate when the female is on heat. Since she is pregnant the male won't smell that she is available for mating and he'll leave her alone.

Answer 7

They give birth to baby hamsters

Answer 8

No.
