Do female hamsters smell when in heat?

yes I have a hamster his name is sugar. and sometimes he can smell really bad. Yes female hamsters smell when in heat. If you aren't sire of it's gender you should get it checked by a local veterinarian, but if it is a male and it stinks don't freak out he might just need to have his cage cleaned. If it is a female then you know it is in heat, female hamsters go into heat about every 3-4 days. If you have a male and want to breed them the only time she will except him is when she is in heat. I have to hamsters male and female and I'm trying to breed them. If you want to breed them then watch them when you put them together and have something ready if they start to fight. If they start to fight slam the paper in between them to stop the fight. If they do great together you can start putting them together in different periods of time. If your hamster is in heat it is best not to hold her unless you are planning to breed. And yes she will still go into heat after she has the babies. Female Syrian hamsters are in gestation for about 16 days and Dwarf hamsters are in gestation for about 18-21 days. I hope my answer helped you if need more answers do some research it helped me a lot.


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.
