  1. wait until they are a month old, and separate the sexes at this time


  2. wait until they are about a month old

  3. Well I have Gerbil's and I Hold them At 2 days old Because the mom is nice, she did not care. It depends on how nice the mom is. If the mom did not care when you held the babies with gloves on then you can start holding holding them. If the mom dose or did anything unusual  then stop  

    . If the mom dose not like it First show her that you are gental with the babies with Gloves on the put it back and take off the gloves and hold the same one with bare hands. Do the same thing with all of the hamsters. And remember when you are holding a babie, if the mom dose any thing unusual put the babie back...   IMIDIATLY!!!!

  4. Don't hold them! Wait until they are around 21-28 days old. A little before that they will have fur and their eyes will become open. Check out the site for when to separate the sexes, ect.

    VVV

  5. No. Wait till they are 28 days old to handle them, and they should be sexed and separated into male/female cages at 28 days.
