Raising Hamster BabiesDo not disturb the litter for at least 14 days. If the nest is disturbed the mother may kill the babies and eat them. If one of the babies gets away from the others, don't worry, the mother will retrieve it. The cage should be cleaned two weeks after birth and the babies should be separated from the mother at 28 days.

Also be sure to to separate the Mother and babies from the daddy hamster. The daddy hamster will harm the babies and the mom always needs to be with her babies.

A hamster is full grown around 6 month of age. At 4 months they are old enough to be separated from their mother and be sold to the general public.

Can your female 1 year old long haired hamster live with a winter white baby hamster?

I wouldn't suggest it. Normally hamsters fight if they are in the same cage as another hamster. You should put them in separate cages unless you want them to fight a lot. Hope this helps.Second Answer well you can but watch them very closely and if they start to fight take little one out!No I don't think so. My sister's hamster, when he was a baby he was in a cage with another hamster and the other hamster bit his ear and there is a little triangle where the bit of his ear used to be! Keep them in separate cages I should suggest. xxxThird AnswerIf your long haired one is a Syrian, NO!!! Syrians are solitary hamsters. they will fight to the death if the baby hamster is the weakest.
