What happens if you touch a new bornn baby hamster?
It's important to avoid touching newborn hamster pups, as they are highly vulnerable and their mother may reject them if she detects even a hint of another scent on them. The mother should be provided with plenty of food, warmth, and privacy to successfully raise her litter in their undisturbed natural state. Any human contact should be limited until the pups are at least two weeks old.
