ofcourse no... we have already 2 litter of them.

Baby hamsters can eat eachother, I've recently had a litter of 11, it was all going fine until they hit 4 weeks old and suddenly 11 became 6 - all girls, corpeses with huge chunks taken out of them. Then a couple of days ago at 5 weeks old, 6 became 3 and they are still alive. We had no clue what had happened or why. We had successfully had 2 previous litters of 13. I guess it's just nature. As long as they have enough food, water, space and nutrients then they should be fine but every now and again there may be the odd mishap.

Your hamsters eat there sister?

They don't neccesarily like the taste of each other. Hamsters are very territorial of their space, and don't like it when other hamsters get in their way. Therefore, they fight and don't stop unless a human intervenes or they kill each other..because they dont want the other hamster to die from one of it's predadors so it rather eat the hamsteror because it is a battle of the fittest
