Question

My mother hamster escaped, and left four babies. What should I do?

Answer 1

Sorry if this doesn't work but u need to try to get another female hamster, or try to find ur other hamster. If you don't they will die.

Answer 2

Feed them KMR (Kitten Milk Replacement) with a pipette. It can be found in Petco/Petsmart.

Answer 3

Use a little eye dropper to feed them warm milk. NOT boiling

Answer 4

Well first find the mom, and if you cant you have to raise them, and it depends how many days they are if their 5 days they can eat solid foods so soak bread with milk and give it to them they must have this at all time and try to keep them warm don't touch just yet just in case mom does show up Good Luck!

Answer 5

Well, the best thing to do is to find your mother hamster and DONT, I SAY DONT,  get another female hamster, because the other female hamster might attack the babies, don't risk that happening.

Answer 6

If the babies are small to where to they cant move around put the cage on the floor. When she hears the babies calling she will come to feed them and you can close her in the cage.

Answer 7

try nursing them your self                                                              look at this site for hamster formula go to petco and pick up feeding needels

Answer 8

No answer, just a comment, Darkange has the best answer, put the cage down, especially at night, she will hear the babies cry and come to them, if you are around you can close the cage, by the way, how did she escape, seems to me you would be alittle more attentive, especially being that there are now babies involved.

Answer 9

Put the cage with her babies in it on the floor make sure she can get inside, she will come back for her babies. Hamsters travel several miles per night in search of food but always come back home. My hamsters use to escape quite frequently but when they had their fill of running around and were hungry they always waited patiently in the middle of my room to be put back in their cage.
