The mom smells your senses and leaves the babies to die. So what ever you do DON'T TOUCH THE BABIES!
In a week it will be 3 weeks old.
You can touch them as much as you like when they are AT LEAST three weeks old.
Only if you touch them when their born. Wait at least 2-3 weeks to touch them.
don't touch them until they become 2 to 3 weeks old .. separate the father hamster from the mother hamster and the babies .
They might squeel if they're not used to you. If they are used to you and you touch them, then they will let you pet them and bite you if you try to threaten it.
You can start handling them when they are about 2-3 weeks old. Do not touch them before then or the mom might eat them
about a month old. If you touch it anytime before that the mother will get mad and kill it.
You can touch them when they are firstborn but their mom must be at a food break. (Not recommended for those with no experience) However, you may hold them when they are two weeks old.
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!!
If you touch the baby hamster, your scent will get on it and the mother will not reconized it. If you separate a hamster before it is three weeks old, then it can die. It needs it's mother for... Other purposes that it cannot give itself
8 weeks
It can happen as early as 3 weeks old, but mating at 2 months is best for you and your hamster.
