Can you hold the hamster babies after 3 weeks?
No way! You shouldn't touch your baby hamsters until they are 3 weeks old. If they are younger than that and you touch them, your scent will stick to their fur. After that, the mom hamster will get scared of the new scent on her baby and EAT THEM!! You don't want that, so don't touch them too early!!
