It is very important that you do not touch the baby hamsters because then the mother will smell human on them, and she will eat the babies. What you need to do is transfer the babies with a plastic spoon or something to another location. The mother will eat her babies. So you want to keep them separate. After the babies are removed, clean the cage as usual.
Isolate the pregnant female from other hamsters, pets, people, and other distractions. Mother hamsters usually eat their babies because they feel threatened and cannot protect them. Male hamsters may eat babies, especially not their blood kin, as a way to ensure their own security. Never handle the mother or babies until the young are several days old and the mother feels comfortable in taking care of them.
No because the mother hamster is taking the baby hamsters to a safer place.
