Baby hamster part II: 9 months later - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-66wDP40jvhs.html Thank you all for the likes and comments, I hope you enjoy a relaxing time here 😊 I wish you a good day ❤️ P.S. My adult hamsters now live in IKEA Detolfs. The temporary cage in this video was explicitly used for breeding (IMO it worked the best for hamster babies since the mother was never overwhelmed and never ate any of her babies). However, I will consider upgrading the breeding cage to a bigger one when it's safe to do so, just to avoid causing confusion in viewers. All babies had been adopted between week 6 - week 8. Please do not house hamsters together when mature, females and males need to be separated from week 3 to week 4, separate all hamsters from week 6 - week 8. Please do not breed hamsters at home without sufficient knowledge, and any breeding related question will not be answered (except for accidental litter). Even as an owner with 20 years' hamster experience, I am still learning all the time (I was only considering my view angles since I knew my pets, but I did realise that it may cause confusions in some viewers, hence I had stopped filming certain contents in my later videos). There have been lots of good advice given to improve my contents over the past years, and I really appreciate all of your contributions😊.
I've been raising hamsters since 1982 and this has been my experience.... The majority don't stay still for long when being handled Some do not like being picked up Most are docile and easy going and do not bite when picked up Some will amaze you by getting very attached. I had one that I let loose come look for me daily for food, sometimes falling asleep in my hand. Another would sleep next to me on my pillow for hours. I could pet it, sing to it etc and it wouldn't budge Hamsters are territorial and only get along if they come from the same litter They usually live around 2 years but in my 40 years of raising them I had two hamsters that lived 4 years I kissed all my hamsters in their cute tiny little mouths and never got any disease or sickness. They are ultra clean animals Hamsters are incredibly adorable and fun to watch
it will soon be the one year anniversary since my hamster died, i miss her very much. i feel your pain on loosing our little angels. that can be said for all pets, i love animals so much it hurts to see them go 😞
Attention. That is not their actual cage! Hamsters need to be in a different environment while breeding. Also they need to be away from there father cause the father can eat the babies.
The father is going to eat the child and thats totaly fine :) (It's a joke stop writing a full paragraph about it) Edit: lmao can't believe I said this.
But my mother hamster just eat all her baby 😭, they just gone one by one and then boom the mother is the one who left at the cage 🥺 i read in google that the father will prevent the mother eating their child
@@sarahdaldiri24 with hamsters. once they're pregnant, They should be separated. The father will eat them. Also you're so post to leave them be with only bothering her with food and water. Hamsters will eat there babies if they feel there environment is dangerous and they feel they can protect them. So staying away even a bit after they're born will help her not to do that. Also don't touch them at all. Your scent could make her eat them to
@@ramenaddict1676 Sometimes its the Owner's fault. The owner doesnt give the mother too much like privacy and food(nutrients so the mother can make milk).
I was feeling sad thinking about my late hamsters, but seeing this made me feel better. They grow up and are gone so fast, but I love them and it’s worth it. Thank you for the the video ❤️
When I was a kid my hamster bit me, and my dad thought I should get a tetnis shot, so we went to the ER. The bored people I was sitting with starting taking turns talking about the medical problem that brought them to the hospital. One guy was stabbed, another had a bad wound from a circular saw. When it was my turn I had to say my hamster bit my finger.
you should try taming your hamster patiently! there are lots of vids on it but generally I try to put food near them, and with time put it closer and closer till they are comfortable taking it from my hand. then I tend to put treats in a jar, wait for them to climb in (do not close the jar of course) and pick the jar up so they can get used to my hands being around them (but be careful that they don't feel suffocated and claustrophobic in the jar! always leave them and escape). I usually spend at least a few weeks doing this in small steps, but some hamsters may need a bit longer.
I have a hamster, cookie she is the sweetest thing ever, she sleeps next to me and cuddles, I love her so much! Edit: Cookie unfortunately died a few days ago, I’m crying s much, I’m a wreck right now, I miss her...
Elisabeth jav3 you tried hand feeding? If you haven’t every day give them a treat through your fingers and eventually when they take the treat with no hesitation, put your hand flat In the cage with treats on it once a day, then you can start to pick them up as they should be bonded with you:) ( I would do each step for 2-3 weeks)
My daughter got a hamster for Christmas. Ham the hamster. She escaped from her cage for 2 days and nights, my daughter was crying. We have 3 cats and a dog so i didnt expect good news. Found her one morning in the corner with the 3 cats protecting her from the dog. The cats know shes a friend not food. The dog wanted to eat her. Cats were hissing at the dog when he got close. He would have eaten her. The cats groom her whenever shes out of her cage. They love her.
I wonder, when hamsters get old, do they dream about their days as babies? They're solitary animals, but maybe they miss being able to cuddle up in one big warm pile with their siblings....
Who knows. My hamster died when he was 4 years old; his fur turned gray, and he became extremely absent-minded, to the point of being oblivious to the food that had been placed right before his nose. I believe he started experiencing some sort of hamster dementia... It was heartbreaking to watch, yet I'm glad he managed to live a long, calm, quiet life.
With most animals giving birth is an easier exprience than with humans because we have inpractically shaped heads as babies, but most mammals have more room since the mother's pelvis is larger in comparison.
@@margaritam.9118 There's a cause, not a reason; evolution isn't a conscious process, it's just a series of consequences. Yeah, the human skull and a few homonids before has had a lot of selection for physically bigger brains which have costed jaw muscle and the sharpness of our senses. The baby skulls have evolved to make it a little easier because they have soft spots meaning the skull is a little flexible and allows the expansion of the brain which is faster than the speed at which we can make skull bones. Of course that's not enough
Same i had got 2 hamsters and the guy at the pet store said yep here are two girl hamsters one baby and one older one and i was okay gimme 2 months later the morning of my birthday i hear crying and i got worried thinking my girl hamster was hurt nope I see 5 baby hamsters lol
@@XxxJessicaxxX41013 oh how beautiful gift haha. I addopted my hamster and 2 weeks ago babies were here ❤ miss them but my boyfriend has one of them :D
@@Ja-sk7yl thats good that your boy friend kept one lol I didnt find out my other hamster was a boy until he went on my hand and i felt """ boy parts :/ ( balls) "" and then the girl started getting bigger and 2 days later i got a birthday gift
My daughter had 2 hamsters. One at the time. I miss them dearly. I said no to another one only because I couldn't loose another baby. They both had personalities. Scout was very laid back and would sell her grandmother for food. She came to me when I called her after 2 day gone missing. I found her inside of couch. The poor think was so thirsty, when I put her back in cage. Daizy was sassy little thing. I teased her with food a little once and she gave me the stare and didn't take it from me anymore. We had 6 cages for them connected together and we were switching it around quite often. You could see how excited they got when we did that.
I'll admit I'm not a big fan of the species in general, but there is something truly fascinating about watching them progress from looking like bits of raw chicken, to looking like miniatures of adult hamsters. It's impressive how fast they develop and grow. They appeared to be very well cared for.
@@GG-kn2se That's not their cage tho? Hamsters need to be in a separate cage after breeding. And they need to be far from their father figure. The creator of this video stated themselves that they need to be contained for at least 2-3 weeks, and they also said these cages are for video shooting. They'll get their bigger cage after they've fully grown.
@@GG-kn2se Pretty sure those aren't their cages. The first cage is likely just a temporary cage to keep the babies away from their father and any other hamsters in the cage their mother was bred in. The second cage is likely not a cage the creator makes their hamsters live it. It looks more like a temporary cage meant to show off hamsters before putting them in their real cages. Most of these cages look like they were shown to make the video look cleaner, I doubt the hamsters leave in those full time. Let's not base accusations of neglect off of completely plausible actions.
@@GG-kn2se It’s the same as how a mama dog usually gives birth in a crate or playpen and chills out in that space until her pups are able to free roam and not need to feed. Of course no grown dog is happy in a playpen that fits in a living room, but 1) she’s got a whole litter of little ones to keep her eye on and 2) she just gave birth, she’s tired and needs to recover. I’m sure these hamsters are in a temporary “birthing” cage and will be transferred to new homes and better cages once they are grown.
I have had many hamsters in my life, seeing your interaction with these kits warms my heart. They will make excellent little buddies for someone. I’ve had some that came from hamster mills that were very savage and undesirable pets. Yours will be very desirable and gentle.
this makes me miss my old hamster.. he died of old age over the summer. unfortunately, I didn't know how to bond with him properly, and he was always scared when I held him. i wasn't there during the months before his death, and I'm sad that i didn't get to have a proper relationship with him. I miss him a lot, and when I get another hamster I'll make them the happiest hamster ever
I had the same with my guinea pig she died in summer too she was old she didnt want to come out of her cage because she was scared now I got a rabbit and I wanna make him the happiest pet i ever had
OMG same. My baby, Coco was around 3 4 months and he died of an illness. I told my parents the day he got sick, take him to the vet, they never listened and it was too late. We buried him in the garden and we put flowers down on his grave very often. My mam also made a little toy a few days after his death, she added a white stripe on it to make it look like him. But I have another Hamster now, his name is Buttons, although he’s naughty, he’s really brave and fearless. Coco was terrified of lots of things. But we realised something more and more, Buttons was starting to look more and more like Coco. His fur was getting brighter, he started to get a white line around his body, and he looks just like Coco now. It’s like he never left us- but the point is, I’m sorry for your loss, and losing a pet, even if it’s just a hamster is one of the worst things, like for example having a dog your entire life since you were born and having it put down, or a cat that you played with your entire life since you were still crawling on your knees as a baby and now you’re about to enter college and the cat doesn’t return. No one has seen or heard it’s purr or meow, just silence and tears
@@AR-wt3by huh??.. she looks like she been carrying a load of heavy shit in her pouches, ran out of breath and wanted break and a quick lil sun bathe. She look like a boss bitch resting from her hustle ain't no one attacking her!
They are so cute! The cream-banded Syrian hamsters look identical to my hamster, Pancake! On day 18, they look like tiny fluff balls! 🥺Thanks for looking after these little hamsters so well! They seem very healthy! 🐹💕
When i watch this, i cried a lot. I remember my hamster, her name is Mi, she gave birth for 2 times, first time, she gave 5 cute hamsters and the second times, she gave 9 hamsters. But till now, she..........already die😭😭😭i cried a lot. I’m remember that time, we got lots of fun together, but now, even her husband To and 1 of her baby, Lo has died. I’m very sad😢😢😢
I love hamsters so much! It's so unfair that they only live a couple years! The hamster in my profile pic, Bonita, was my favorite. She would follow me around the house, and paw at my leg to communicate that she wanted to be picked up and cuddled. If I was sitting on the floor, she would jump on my lap. Bonita was like a very affectionate cat. She passed away in 2016 of kidney failure, and I still miss her like crazy.
When I was young I had a female hamster that I had no idea was preggers and gave birth. It was a beautiful thing to see happen but it sadly didn't end well. Most of the babies starting getting sick and dying in the first few days. My mom and I did everything we could. I held one of them in my palm and fed him, and he passed away in my hand later that night. I named him Fighter because of how hard he was struggling to live. Thankfully one of the babies survived and lived a full happy life. It was depressing as hell but a good lesson about the reality of life.
I'm sorry to say this but if the hamster died it's probably your fault. Hamsters are supposed to live in the wild, and burrow tunnels upto 5 feet. Just like any other animal, they can't live properly in captivity. I speak from actual experience. If I am wrong and hamsters can in fact live in captivity, please please do correct me.
@@nameersadik2123 I've had countless hamsters throughout my youth that all lived long and happy lives, those babies and their mother suffering the way they did was unusual and the only time I've experienced hamsters dying like that. I've never heard of a hamster being incapable of surviving in a cage.
My hamster died on my birthday when I got her in 2020! I got her at pet smart on January 16 and she die the next Friday the 22 and I was sad cause I only had her for a week so I didn’t get to bond with her!
I had a hamster named kiwi that looked exactly like the mama! She loved being held and would escape every night to come to my room and crawl into my hand. She stayed in the kitchen. I was so confused how the heck my hamster got in my bed so I laid by my door with the door open to see if my sister was pranking me but 2 hours later I see my little hamster walking straight to me. I miss her 😭
Quinn Thomas I am sending you a virtual hug, my hamster was named Boo, he had problems with his heart so he died during the first week we got him, he was calm and sweet so I was already attached it really hurt my heart reading your comment
My heart has been carried away from these little fluffers ❤️ actually I have a hamster myself only one and the only things she likes to do is eat sleep and play she acts like she can live on her own in the wild 😂
GUYS NEVER EVER TOUCH OR LOOK AT A HAMSTER HERES WHY You will die from the cuteness (Edit) Thanks for all the likes you guys :D (I also have a hamster named twix)
I remember I had a hamster i named skippy and my sister had one as well (forgot her name) but I came one from school one day and found out that my sisters hamster had babies and skippy was a dad. It was just such an amazing and beautiful thing I was just so excited and happy. I was like 12 at the time so this was a huge thing for me plus skippy himself was a birthday present so he was still my favorite. They all lived happy little lives in their homey little cage. Skippy was probably my most favorite pet I've ever had despite being so little and not living as long as say a dog. But I could tell he loved me as much as I loved him. I miss him so much.
honeybearr Yes I know this comment didn’t say that they were Syrians or not but I meant in general seeming everyone in these comments are discussing their Syrians put together and these Syrians in the video.
honeybearr Plus, if you do your proper research you’ll see that dwarf hamsters despite living together in the wild 9/10 fight when they’re all in one cage together.
Things for the veiwers! Number 1: this cage is too small, but when a hamster is pregnant and nursing they will be put into a small cage until all the hamsters are sold. The bare minimum is 450+ sq in and in other places is higher. But for syrians(teddy bear, bear, fancy, ect are just names the pet store gives them so they are cute to smaller children, that isnt their real name) around 600-800 is recommended. So please dont use this small of a cage! If you do the hamster will likely die from stress or a stress related disease. Possibly from escaping or an escape attempt aswell. Number 2: never house any hamsters together! Yes, even dwarfs(I'll get to why in a sec). Hamsters are solitary, especially syrians and the chinese hamster. Housing them together is bad and they will fight, possibly to the death. These guys are housed together up until they are either all sold or they reach the age to be separated(unless this person isnt doing this properly, but I will assume they did since they did everything else right). Now, I know your now mad because I said dwarfs need to be seperate, but let me state why. The only reason dwarfs will live together in the wild is to breed and stay safe from predators. But since in your home they wont be doing either of those, they dont need to be together. Dwarfs will fight eachother too but they can tolerate it a bit more. But this common myth is not true, dwarf hamsters are not social. If you DO decide to house dwarf hamsters together you will need a 900 sq in cage and two of everything(two wheels, sand baths, fold bowls, water bowls, water bottles, ect) you will also need 6 hides instead of three. And lastly, number 3: dont use pine or cedar bedding, the only good wood bedding is aspen. I honestly cannot tell and I would appreciate if the creator would tell me if its aspen or one of the others. The reason you cant use this is cause it causes respiratory infections.
thank you for educating the people in the comments, people really can’t make a video with any animal without people (who sometimes don’t have any experience with any small animals) complaining in the comment section about how many things they are doing wrong.
thank you for all the correct info 😊👍 I was searching for something like this and I noticed the bedding was not deep enough it has to be 5-6 inch bare minimum you done such a good job tho and everything you said is correct thanks 👌👌😊
@@mistermomo2904 The advice for Robos is the same for any other dwarf breed- bigger cage, two of everything, and have a spare cage ready in case they fight
I have a Syrian long haired hamster named Criceto. I'm watching your wonderful video while I'm on the sofa with my pet together. 🐹 Greetings from 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
They are so cute and small at first.🤭 They grow up so fast. I have a hamster called Churro, He is a Syrian, long haired, cream banded, hamster (look it up). He is very old as he is 2 and 2 and a bit months. And hamsters usually live to 2 and a half. He is more like a cat than a hamster, he happily sits on my lap, I also have to brush him with a toothbrush because he has really long hair.
That vídeo makes me cry a Lot , i makes me remember my old friend hamster , that died last year ;( But im so proud of people like you who take care with hamsters , the deserve a Lot of love ❤️
I thought the same when i thought I got two hamster girl nope jokes on me the pet store gave me a boy and girl when i asked for 2 girls and she ended up having 5 baby hamsters on my birthday Yaay lol
@@tiktoks8036 this bring me to tears the mother hamster pass away 6 days after giving birth and then 3 babies out of 5 died and this morning 4/16/2021 the other 2 died
Your mother hamster looks identical to my hamster I had for 3 (almost 4 years) when I was in my teens. She was so precious and used to sit on my shoulder and climb on my head eating nuts, while I used to play on my Xbox. Thanks for bringing back some fond memories. R.I.P. Peaches. ❤
@@mrpoisoness5098 i had a 3 year old hamster that dyed...from old age he was turning gray haired and stuff mama was tryin to get him to eat or drink but he wouldnt he was a white and black sirian hamster named fluffy
Thank you for your beautiful share of those beautiful hamsters. Sadly, I can't keep any these days as I have two gorgeous cats but had previously kept 'hammies' all of my life and loved plus grieved for every one of them. My last one was chocolate coloured and he was named Barley but he lived just past 2-years-old. I was devastated when he passed away. They are so cute xxx
I had my first hammie in 2018, and just now has recently passed away, so 4 years for a Syrian hammie, wow I was impressed, he died of old age, he also got along with my two female cats who had 0 interest in him, I now have a new hammie that is a little bit more energetic and problematic but cute nonetheless, cats still no interest on the hammie and hammie has actually escaped his cage twice but was totally fine, sleeping in a fucking corner or my room, so I’m pretty sure he’s safe here haha
@@PossibleBat That's a grand age! I do know of cats who are unperturbed by hammies. My ex's cat used to love my hamster and lick him lovingly lol (obviously with me being on guard) :D xx
We have 5 cats and they could careless about the hamsters and guinea pigs in the house. Or the mice and rats they bring in and let go for us to be friends with lol
I just want to clear a few things up. Syrian hamsters are a solitary species, while this video is obviously okay as they are still babies and need their mother and each other, this may give the wrong impression to people who don't know much about hamsters. 30 days is actually when some hamsters are able to reproduce, and they should be separated into same sex groups to avoid this from happening, and at this point they don't need their mother. After they're separated, they can stay with each other until 6-8 weeks, after this point their territorial instincts will kick in and they will start fighting, this leads to injuries and even death. So please do not put Syrian hamsters together after 8 weeks. Also, these living conditions looks quite poor, they could just be temporary but again this gives off the wrong impression for people who don't know any better. A hamsters needs at LEAST 450 square inches of floor space, this is the absolute minimum and honestly I'd recommend even more for Syrians since they are quite large. For reference, that clear enclosure looked probably less than 100 square inches and the barred cage around 150, both WAY too small for any type of hamster. I really hope people do research if they're interested in owning a hamster, and not take this video as an example, because these do seem to be temporary cages. Very cute video though!
@@KumaQQ Yeah, of course, large cages can overwhelm the babies and they can hurt themselves on toys. I just wanted to let people who may not know that these cages are not a suitable size for a hamster, since people may look at this and not realize these are just temporary cages
@@krystallevine Yes! While dwarf hamsters do live in groups in the wild, it's only for 2 reasons: Safety and reproduction. And in captivity, both these reasons are ruled out since there's no predators and they won't be reproducing. They don't live in groups for the social aspect like social animals do (like gerbils, mice, rats, rabbits ect.) While they can successfully be kept together in captivity, you'd need to give them a LOT of space (900+ square inches) and double of absolutely everything, but even then they may still fight. It really isn't worth it at all, hamsters don't get lonely, they don't need a friend. They don't get enrichment from being together like humans do, so honestly just keep them by themselves, they do best alone. If you want a social species that need to be in pairs/groups, you could look into gerbils and mice who have similar (but not the same) care, or just get a single hamster, simple as that. Hope this helped
As a longtime owner of my beloved hammys, i can appreciate where your concern is coming from but this is a breeding enclosure and it is of the right size for the babies. I doubt anyone getting a hamster for the first time would be negatively influenced by this video regards to the appropriate care. But still good that u point it out 🙂💗
@@sarahroberts7374 I did mention how I know this is a temporary cage, I know large cages can overwhelm the babies. I just wanted to mention since I know there's a lot of people who don't know much about hamster care who see this video and may want a hamster because of how cute these ones are, and many people just go off to a pet store without ever doing any more research. It's so common for hamsters to be unknowingly neglected, so many people just put them in small cages because it all that's ever shown in pet stores so people don't realize it's wrong. I just wanted to mention this for those who don't know any better, and hopefully the people who never done any research on this topic and are just passing by will learn a bit from reading my comment 😌
I remember when my hamster was this small! This made me squeal with joy! (I adopted a Syrian hamster a year ago and he stayed in his baby size until he was 8 months old then had a huge growth spurt. He was so tiny!)
I love how you treat your hamsters with respect love and kindness unlike A CERTAIN CHANNEL I KNOW that posts hamsters doing obstacle courses and getting hurt. I love hamsters and hate to see them being mistreated so good job treating your animals better then them!
It's called a temporary housing cage, they put the hamster in their to raise the baby's and check for medical problems, then put them in a bigger cage. That's what breeders do 🧠
@@Sindical_ Still, a storage bin size would be much better. Even if its not even 450 square inches. I can understand a smaller cage when they were really tiny, but the fact that they were never moved into a bigger one when they grew bigger...
@@azura4582 I'm pretty sure they didnt keep all the babies. They all probably went to new homes where they each had their own cage. They were just raising them until they were old enough to go to new homes.
@@cupofmaddyVODS its the pandemic. Social distancing. She probably didn't since you can't go anywhere. This is an Asian hamster channel. Most hide under the gise of cuteness, but there is hoarding going on in all these kinds of channels. Its not okay.
