Of course, the mother hamster is there, but the male hamster, or any others, should be kept away for up to several weeks. It is likely they would upset the mother or even attack the newborns. Do not handle the babies because if you touch them, they will pick up your scent and the mother may ignore or even eat them (!).

∙ 12y agoYou shouldn't put the male hamster back with the baby hamsters - but the male hamster (dad of the babies) can breed with his daughter/s (seperatley) when they are old enough. But never let sisters and brothers breed because this is inbreeding and that is bad because it can lead to serious health problems in the hamsters.
A hamster is old enough to breed at about 10 - 12 weeks (about 3 months)

∙ 14y agoI have been breeding the hamsters for a while, the best thing to do is put the male hampster back in straight away, so he can begin his nurturing process. If the male becomes irate, just give him a horse tranquiliser.
