does anybody know if male hampsters eat their babys?

Question

okay, so my sisters hampsters just, like literally just, had hampster babys. and we were wondering, do male dwarf hampsters eat male hampster babys? we also need 3 or more hampster baby names? well, if you give us good names, just think about it, your hampster names on our hampsters! and, if you give us just the right names, then you will be chosen as best awnser. thanks for your help!

Answer 1

And don't handle the babes to much because the mother can get nervous and eat to.
She'll also eat the ones that may die, but it may not be good for her so try to keep an eye on them and if one does die take it out of the cage after holding it up to the mother to let her know it no longer amoung the living.

Answer 2

heavily, it should be less difficult in the experience that they were 2 weeks she is of course eating them for a reason. Is a male interior the cage, or are there the different hamsters interior the cage. it may nicely be that the little ones are sick, ward off touching them. you need to attempt taking them to the vet, or a puppy save, yet i'm unhappy to say, the probability is low. also, she would nicely be eating them if there are too many. She would end quickly at the same time as she unearths that she is left with basically some little ones.

Answer 3

All hamster baby books tell you to separate the mother immediately from the rest of the hamsters, especially the males.
Otherwise the babies are cannibalized and maybe only one will survive.

Answer 4

Yes, male hamsters will cannabilize the young and so will other female hamsters who are not the mother.
