What do you if your mummy hamster feed her babies?

If your mummy hamster is not feeding her babies, there are several things you can do to encourage her to do so. However, it is important to remember that some hamsters may not be able to feed their babies for various reasons, such as illness or stress. If you are unsure whether or not your mummy hamster is feeding her babies, it is always best to consult a veterinarian.

Here are some things you can do to encourage your mummy hamster to feed her babies:

1. Provide plenty of food and water. Make sure that the mummy hamster has access to plenty of food and water at all times. Offer a variety of foods that she might find enticing, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, commercial hamster food, and mealworms.

2. Create a comfortable environment. The mummy hamster needs to feel comfortable and safe in order to feed her babies. Provide her with a warm, dry place to nest that is free of drafts and noise.

3. Minimize stress. Stress can inhibit a mummy hamster's ability to feed her babies. Try to avoid handling her and her babies unnecessarily, and keep the environment calm and quiet.

4. Be patient. It may take a few days for the mummy hamster to start feeding her babies. Be patient and persistent, and eventually she should start nursing them.

If the mummy hamster still does not feed her babies after a few days, you may need to hand feed them. You can do this by using a small syringe to feed them formula milk. It is important to follow the directions on the formula milk package carefully, and to consult a veterinarian if you have any questions.
