Default Hamster making nest

Hi! So im a newbie hamster mom. I have this 1 female syrian hamster my cousin gave to me. It's already an adult when I got it. I don't know if she gave birth before but I also have a male one. She got pregnant and eventually gave birth but all of her baby died. When I try to scoop her dead babies out she bit me so I did not try anything for a while and gave her some tissue paper. She's still building nest after her babies died. I don't know if this is normal or she still thinks her babies are alive. But she ate them anyway. Can someone help me with this?

Default Re: Hamster making nest

Hello

Hamsters will dispose of their young if they sense health issues with the pups or sense danger.

You should avoid breeding your hamsters without knowing their background and fully researching and preparing.

If there are any babies left, remove them and clean her cage, check she is eating and drinking and otherwise well 9n stuck pups etc) and give her some time.

Pregnancy can be a risk so you risk losing your adult hamster also. Don't let her meeet your male again
