i can't believe it ohmygosh MY HAMSTER GAVE BIRTH HOLY CRAP.
on thursday my sister was feeding the hamsters and she was saying that one of them didnt come out at all and is making funny noises inside a tin. so i shined a light inside and i saw red little things the size of a big bean! apparently it looked something like that below:
it's freaking ugly with their thin and translucent skins, bulging eyes with no slits and skinny limbs that help them squirm around.
we were super shocked because
1) we thought it was a male. when we bought them the shopkeeper said that 90% of the hamsters in the box we chose were males.
2) the hamster was still the same size. only difference is that there are a few funny looking things beside it. seriously it can climb to the second floor, do a suicide jump and never miscarriage. wonderful.
they are really bundles of joy i can hear their tiny squeaks and watch them squirm about and im so excited to see them grow!! i cant wait till weeks later :D they grew much after a day (:
i can look at them for hours ^^
anyway the net says that it's normal for the mother to eat one of the babies, especially the first litter but i dont think any of the babies died yet. it's really gross if they eat the babies eewwww.
and we cant touch the babies now till 2 weeks later when they have fur and eyes and blah then they will look like hamsters ahahaha. i think over the next few days they will grow fur from their pinkish skin like the one above!
anyway the pictures were taken from the net cause i couldnt take a photo of the babies my hamster had D: they are hidden in a tin and the camera just couldnt shoot any close up pics ): and i feel kinda guilty cause the cage is in a mess and i really want to clean it up but not after 2 weeks later which i believe by then, the cage is in a disastrous state. if i had known it was pregnant we would have placed it in a larger cage poor Ah Fat (the hamster) have not much space to run about.
i think Ah Fat has around 5 or more babies and i hope none dies (cause i dont want to look at a dead body) AND I WANT THEM TO GROW FAST out of their ugly pink stage :D
