baby hampster care there 5 days old what should i do only serious answer?

Answer 1

If the mother is still with them, don't disturb them. I'd add a piece of dog or cat food to her diet once a day, as well as something like a yogurt drop that's made for small animals. This will give her some extra protein and calcium which will help when nursing her young. I wouldn't change the bedding in the cage until they are about 14 days old or so to avoid the risk of the mother abandoning them.

If the mother isn't nursing them, there isn't much you can do. I don't know what the statistic is with hamsters, but with mice there's less than a 20% chance of survival and that's assuming the human is doing literally everything possible to keep them warm and fed. You can try picking up a formula and bottle made for animals at a pet store, but they require consistant feeding and special care.

Congrats on the babies and good luck :)

Answer 2

Is the mom still nursing them? Is the mom is stll taking care of them, leave them alone. All you have to do is take care of the mom. Make sure she has food and water. Hamsters are cannibalistic and at the slightest sign that there isn't enough food, she will kill her babies to prevent them from dieing of starvation. Give her some nesting materials like tissue or newspaper.

Answer 3

Mom will take care of them! Leave them in their cage, together in a dark, quiet place...and only bother mom to drop food in. If she thinks you're a bother she'll destroy them. Good luck.
