Re: Babies and a sick mommy sayrian
She may be very tired and worn out with the babies. We would never breed a hamster at that age as it is an enormous strain on her body. Last breeding date would be around 8-9 months maximum however they are here now.
I'd supplement the food a lot with plenty babyfood and porridge. The pups will be eating themselves now a little so provide plenty small seeds and porridge oats sprinkled near the nest as well as small chopped cucumber for fluids. We use the omega seed sprinkle mix from health food stores as it has nice small seeds. Tiny cubes of tofu provide protein too. Hope the pups are OK and mum too.
