...and there are SEVEN of them!!! :shock: Go Sylvester! For a first time robo teen mum, that's a spectacular effort.

All seven look healthy but tiny (compared to Bruce's four when they were the same age). I really hope it stays that way. I've been dying to know how many babies there are but now I know, it means that horrible period starts when you fret constantly about losing babies. Fingers crossed everyone!!

i've had 2 robo litters and they were both of 7, so don't worry :wink:

I'm actually quite excited about the 7. They all looked really healthy. I've been providing Sylvester (and Bruce) with a veritable feast every morning and evening so there's no risk of anyone going hungry. There's probably enough food to feed a good 20 pups! Better safe than sorry.

They're just so gorgeous....having seen Bruce's babies, I never thought robos could get any tinier and more perfect...and then I saw Sylvester's!! Its going to be a real struggle to leave my house for a while. :wink:

Brilliant news, East London Chick - that's a whopping litter for a teenage robo, congratulations :wink: ..I was wondering if you'd seen them yet.

Me, the boys and all the hams are looking forward to meeting you tomorrow :)

Well done Sylvester. I will keep fingers/paws crossed for her. I lve hammy babies especially the first time you see them.

Two of Sylvester's babies just escaped the nest and Sylvester let them stay out for 5 mins or so before carting them back in. They're teeny tiny weeny gorgeous!! :D

How lovely! It must be nice to be able to raise two healthy litters of tinsy winsy baby hamster :D

So far I've now seen 5 of them....despite them each being smaller than a monkey nut (!), Sylvester has a full time job trying to keep them in the nest. :D

I'm desperately hoping there's still 7 of them but worse case, 5 is a pretty impressive effort.

even one baby would be an achievement for Sylvester ELC, but hopefully all 7 will be there safe and sound. Fingers crossed that two little 'nutlets' were just hiding from you. x
