Shold i seprate by hamster and there babies i really dont know how old they are becuase i was on vaction?

Question

there are 3 babies the are about the size of your thmb there eyes are open they reson i ask is becuase one of the older hamster tried to eat him

Answer 1

You shud probably seperate them. Are they Syrian? They can only live together until they are ten weeks but i bought mine at 7 weeks so they shud be fine to seperate at a young age. Are they feeding off their mum? Maybe you could take away the hamster who tried to eat one.

Answer 2

Oh no!  How long were you on vacation for?  The babies need to nurse for at least 4 weeks.  If their eyes are open, then they might already be old enough.  Have you seen them eating food on their own?  If they are eating and drinking water on their own, then go ahead and separate them.  If possible, separate the boys and girls so the girls don't get pregnant (they are fertile shortly after weening from their mom).  You don't want to end up with a million hamsters.  Good luck!
