Can a hamster get pregnant right after giving birth to pups?

Question

my hamster had pups about 14 or so days ago iand i think she might be pregnant so i need to know....thx!

Answer 1

They certainly can, We learned that the hard way in an animal class I took, the mouse we had got pregnant while she was still taking care of her babies

Answer 2

Yes. It surprised me too.

Answer 3

they can get pregnant agiand within 12 to 24 hours

Answer 4

they can get pregnant within 24 hours.  So it is definitely a possibility.

Answer 5

Um, yes.

But the father shouldn't even be in there anyway- once the babies are born, or even way before it, the male should be removed because he may attack/eat the babies, or cause the mother to attack/eat the babies.

Answer 6

Yes, they can get pregnant immediately after giving birth.

This is why the male should always be separated from the female before she gives birth.

Immediate pregnancy after birth is also dangerous for hamsters.

Well, just make sure you remove the male this time before she gives birth...but it is going to be very difficult to raise 2 litters at once.

I wish you and your hammies all the very best.

(Keep your fingers crossed...hope she isn't pregnant)

Have a Good Day!

Answer 7

Yes, if you never removed the male.

Please stop breeding if that's what you are doing:
