my hammies gave birth to 6 babies , so i decided to seperate the father from them. is it the rite thing to do ah?
argghhhh.
Yup, don't re-introduce the father until the babies grow hair. In fact, it is best to house the babies away from the mother after their eyes have opened and they have grown hair.
1. separate the father away
2. if possible, put a soft cotton towel over the cage. if the mother smells any outside scent, it may feel threatened & consider its offspring not one of its own & eat it up!
3. just replace food & drinks as normal... no need to change bedding.
4. dont keep looking at them coz human scent... like i said, above.
5. enjoy seeing them grow up.
what breed are they? are u selling by any chance?
they are dwarfs . they do smell bad. lol. the mother is only 2mths ++ old.
