if the hamster baby is under three weeks of age, it is helpless. until then, rely on their mother to provide milk and comfort. they may be seem eating poo and tissue. this is normal. in my experience, the mother will never eat her young! you may have heard that she will but it happens very rarely and she will only do it if she feels threatened.
