Many friends who have just raised hamsters want to know: Prenatal performance of hamsters? Birth date of a hamster? How long does it take for a hamster to give birth? these questions. Let me give you an answer below~
The female hamster needs to be prepared before giving birth. We need to prepare: a comfortable and wide nest to facilitate the female hamster to give birth. Also, let the hamster mother stay in a quiet environment. It is best not to touch the hamster cubs after the hamster mother has given birth.

A few minutes before the hamster is about to give birth, the hamster will feel the labor pains. The closer the labor is, the more frequent the labor pains. Before giving birth, the hamster will pick up the sawdust and put it in the place where he wants to give birth. This is to continuously strengthen the nest. At this time, the hamster will also walk in the nest to ensure that he has enough production space.
The birthing process of hamsters is about 2 hours. When we find that the hamster mother starts to give birth, we must keep a distance. If we forcibly approach and disturb the hamster mother, it will cause the hamster mother to give birth poorly, and even if it is born, it will be abandoned.

The hamster's birth period is 15 to 16 days, remember that hamsters are solitary animals. Once mating is complete, separate immediately or one hamster will die.
During the pregnancy of the hamster, remember to add water and food to the hamster, and clean the hamster cage every day to prevent infection of some skin problems.
