Well, please dont think im a terrible owner for this. We left yesterday to go to my sisters college to get her room ready etc. Its about an hour and a half/2 hours so I expected to get home in a few hours. Well, something happened to where we had to stay the night and couldnt get home till the next day. I wasnt at all suspecting to have to stay and there was nothing I could do. (I was so worried about the hams) when we came back we found one of the girls, that somehow got out of her cage, in the corner of the boys cage!! Oh no. I pray to god I wont have more ham babies!
So I really dont know what to do. I know they are in heat every 5th to 6th day? How do I tell if shes going to have babies now? The weird thing is she somehow got out, must of jumped to the window sill, (a pretty long jump) jumped a longer jump to the bed (yeah the hamster cage was on the bed, cause I was cleaning the floor and left him there when we left) And soomeeehow climbed into his cage which would involve her climbing on stuff to get in.
Shes about 18 weeks old (when will that girl be able to come get some?)
Is that too young to have babies anyway? (safely) If she does have babies is there anyone that could take care of her? My sister thinks I should give her to petco, but that is a no for me!
When I made that post about maybe breeding hamsters one day, I meant ONE day, not TOday!
Please cross your fingers she will not have babies!
(Why does this stuff keep happening to my hams? Ugh! Makes me sound like I put them in cardboard boxes!)
