Syrian Hamster PUPS!

The newborn pups don't have any fur, their eyes are closed, and they're still ‎cute.They can't see, or hear, but they can already smell and move themselves ‎around by theirfront feet.

If one does stray from the nest the mother will scoop ‎him up and return him, don't worry, hamster mom's know what they're doing. ‎

Resist the temptation to pick them up. The mom won't like this and it could ‎even cause her to abandon, or even worse, eat the babies. Just watch them ‎and wait around two weeks before handling them. ‎

At two weeks the puppies will have a soft fur coat and will be running around ‎raising havoc in the cage. Around three weeks they'll begin leaving their ‎mother for longer periods of time to explore and look for food on their own. ‎They'll hardly ever fight, and will begin to burrow and hoard food. Yep they're ‎hamsters all right! ‎ At three to four weeks old a baby Syrian Hamster is ready to go live on his ‎own. If left with brothers and sisters a Syrian Hamster will fight them viciously. ‎

So never leave them in mixed sex groups. ‎ But you've already found them good homes long ago
