Question

What age do the baby hamsters get to be before mummy hamster won't eat them anymore?

Answer 1

What, where you can feel assured?

Not until they're at least three weeks and the hamster feels assured with you touching them.

Really, she may attack them until you seperate them from her, which should be at four weeks old.

Answer 2

Dear Apple,

You need to separate them at four weeks old. She might attack them until then. I just love baby hamsters, so be glad you have them and have fun!

Answer 3

Usually after 2 1/2 weeks...but you can never say so, because there were cases, where grown up hamsters ate the other grown up hamster.

You should separate them from the mummy when the pups are 3 weeks old and weaned...if they didn't wean, then leave them for another week.

You never know when they start fighting, kill the other and eat.

They are sweet, but also nasty creatures if kept together.

But this happens with the Syrian Hamsters mostly.

Have a Good Day!
