I don't know myself but if you type in "ways to entertain a dwarf hamster" on Google and click on the second website. This website is really good and will explain everything!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!though just as a rule dont touch the babies for two weeks and only go in the cage to change the food and water. The mother will take perfect care of those teeny weeny babies!!!!!!!!!!

∙ 12y agounfortunately it's likely...leave her and the babies where they are for several weeks, just offering food and water. If the cage is in a noisy area, move it to a quieter place--but do not go into the cage. If there is another adult hamster in there, remove it ASAP.

When can you move newborn mice into a new cage?
Once the babies are born, allow the mother at least 3 days alone with them, without being disturbed. This allows mum to become familiar with the babies. Then, providing mum doesn't mind you coming near the babies, you should move all the babies & the entire nest into a new cage at once. Make sure to place some old bedding in the new cage, so as to lessen the chances mum will reject the babies.
Why does a mother hamster move half of her babies?
The mother hamster will kill the babies for their safety. It sounds strange, but if you disturb or touch the pups, the mother will think they are "infected" and will kill and actually eat the disturbed pup. Just make sure you don't touch the pups until they are old enough so the mother won't kill them.
