Can baby HAMSTERS drink milk if there mother dies?
No, hamsters cannot drink milk. This is because their digestive system is not developed to handle lactose, which is the main sugar found in milk. If you give baby hamsters milk, it can cause gastrointestinal upset, diarrhea and gas, and may lead to dehydration and malnutrition. Providing baby hamsters with properly designed hamster food or commercially available hamster milk replacers to ensure their survival and proper development is much safer.
