Well, nature is funny in this way. She either senses something wrong with it or she may not be willing to care for too many. If you do put the baby back with her she may eat it. I would caution you to be there and watch to see how she reacts. If she snubs or tries to hurt it, your going to have to eye dropper feed it. Call a vet or humane society to ask what exactly you should feed them.

What if a separate the baby hamster from the mother?
You should separate the baby hamsters from the mother when they are 4-5 weeks old. Hamsters are solitary creatures and should be kept in separate cages after they reach this age. If you keep them together, they will fight, sometimes to the death and/or reproduce. Female hamsters are sexually mature at 2 months old. They can become pregnant every 3-4 days (estrus) and their pregnancy lasts 16-18 days.

What should i do I am getting to hamsters if they mate and she has babies should i get them out of the cage immediately so she doesn't eat them?
If she does have babies, take the male out so she WON'T eat them. She may get stressed. Also, don't get the baby hamsters out of the cage. They will probably die, and if you put them back in the cage, the mother hamster may eat them. Just watch the baby hamsters and the mother hamster. Hope this helped. DON'T TAKE THE BABIES OUT OF THE CAGE!!!!! With out the mom the babies will die. And if you put the babies back before they die she will eat them. Besure to take the male out yhe cage. If she feels like here babies are indangered she will eat them.good luck.
