  1. You should leave her be for a few days....she will clean up after herself.. stress could cause her to canibalize her babies....not a pleasant this to see when the babies are walking around chewed up.  Give her time alone.


  2. DO NOT TOUCH HER...SHE WILL BIGHT YOU

    i've tried that

    she wants to protect herself

    and she is tired that is why she didn't clean up yet

    leave her alone she will do it eventually

    and she won't eat her babies

  3. You should definitely not touch her. Leave her be for a few days.

  4. no dont touch her for a few days I know there cute but dont even touch them for 2 weeks u can pet her when she calms down if u dotn listen and u do it she might eat her babys  

  5. You should just leave her alone for the next few days while she gets used to having her babies. She'll clean herself off when she's good and ready. Disturbing her and stressing her out could make her kill the babies.  

  6. Yea i wouldn't touch her if you pick her  up it might make her nervous that you are going to take her babies then she might eat her babies.

  7. DON'T TOUCH HER! SHE'LL EAT THE BABIES!

  8. you dont ever want to play with a mother hamster while she still has her babies. the slightest disturbance for her can cause her to go into stress mode. my female would always to that, at any slight disturbance. as for the blood, she will clean herself. just let her take care of the babies and herself. just make sure she has everything she needs. like food, water, bedding, etc.

  9. she will groom herself. i wouldnt play with her for a few days, leave her with her babies

  10. do not hold her, all the time she can have with her babies is needed. they need to be able to get milk whenever they want, hamster babies are very delicate and will die even i they dont have 30 mins with her. about the cage, if the blood bothers you, put another layer of bedding in there, but not on top of the babies!
