Hamsters need to live separately. Most will fight violently if housed together. If you breed them, plan on separating the babies from the mother in 3-4 weeks. They can breed at 8 weeks of age, so plan on having cages for each of them! Do not leave the male in the cage, he will kill them. If the mother has babies, do not attempt to handle her or the babies for 2 weeks or she might kill them. Leave enough food and water available and try not to bother them for 2 weeks.

Separate them when you know the females pregnant or she has babies.
