JOLO holdthrillkiss.bs.com says: k you see the genital opening and the anus distance female one is much shorter distance Then she called me for easier communication. Well fine, in a moment of panic, i realised that hamsters dont have penises. At least, that's not what it's called. Shit, this is awkward. I should know this. First 10 days: In this earliest days of baby hamsters' life, they will get all the nutrition they need from mother's milk. So make sure you give mother hamster plenty of food and water, and also provide extra protein such as a little milk or a bit of cooked egg. 10 - 14 days: To supplement the milk, you can start offering soft foods, like breads, cooked or grated vegetables, or fresh fruits to baby hamsters. After 2 weeks: The baby hamsters will start sampling the regular hamster mix. It's perfectly alright for the babies to sample a little of everything that mother eats at this period. By 4 weeks: The babies should be weaned from mother's milk and be eating normal hamster food and treats. Keep an eye on how much water your babies drink, they should be drinking plenty of water from the bottle. |
