Default Pregnant hamster?

I have had contact with a person who have two dwarfs together in same cage. They are around 3-4 months old and, one girl and one boy. I do consider to do something. How can a person sell a hamster who might be pregnant. I wonder, what kind of signs do a pregnant hamster show? How can I see it?

Default Re: Pregnant hamster?

Are they sure they’re male & female? Russian ham pregnancy lasts around 18-21 days so it would be surprising if they hadn’t had babies by now really.
It can sometimes be hard to see that much of a difference when they’re pregnant I think, the swelling may not be too obvious but there would normally be changes in behaviour, trying to make a bigger well hidden nest if the habitat allows for that, maybe eating more.
I guess it’s possible if they are male & female she may have had babies & culled them if the living conditions aren’t suitable or the babies weren’t viable.
