Need some advice about my pregnant hamster.....?

Anyone know anything about hamsters? I'm almost 99% sure she's pregnant. I've read that they only are pregnant for 16 days, which would make tonight the night she has her litter. Everytime I look in on her, she's just biting the bars on her cage--no babies. I was told they usually give birth at night but so far nothing. Anyone have any experience with this before?Need some advice about my pregnant hamster.....?
Well, does she REALLY look pregnant ?


My female before giving birth ran in her wheel, chewed like mad on her bars, and stuffed her cheeks full of bedding and nesting material.





A pregnant female will look like this

Serenity was about 2 days due in that pic, and increased in size greatly.





Just leave her be, in the morning coax her out of her nest with a treat and use an unopened pen to pry the nest open to check for pups.


Some females are pregnant longer, my very first breeding female (who started my breeding and I have kept her lineage alive) was pregnant for 21 days and gave birth to 16 pups.





If you have any specific quesions you can either IM me or send me an e-mail and I will be happy to help you !Need some advice about my pregnant hamster.....?
i think if she is about to give birth than just leave her alone, she will have her babies and everything should be fine. when the babies come don't touch then leave them alone if you mess with them the mother may reject them and even eat them. so just leave her alone and go to sleep you may wake up to baby hamsters, or not either way you cant really do anything so just relax, good luck :)
yes i had a hamster that was pregnent.


well you just need to be patient becauyse


she will do her thing, u need to have her


eat very healthy and while her pregnancy


you can give her warm milk.


hope i helped :]
Maybe it is having twin's,making it longer to give birth.She might not even be pregnat,she could be given a poor diet.
well if she is bigger than usual than most likely she's pregnant but don't pick up the babies for about a week or she will eat it.
like all mammals they can come either early or late just think your hamster as a human if shes late no worries but if she does not come into labour by one week fell around her stomach gently and see if you can feel anything this would be the baby hamsters .
