Default What age to adopt a newborn?

I am looking to adopt a dwarf and I have seen a few listings where the pups (?) are newborn. One ad is for pups only two weeks old. When is the right age to adopt? I am scared if the litter is left together too long that I might be adopting a pregnant female, which I definitely don't want.

Also is it possible to have cream dwarfs? Are they hybrids? For instance this litter?

Maybe adopting from an unplanned litter is not such a great idea but there are no rescues in Ireland with hamsters to rehome. I would prefer to hold out for a single, adult dwarf needing a home, really. I definitely don't want to buy one from a pet shop.

Thanks
