Recommended Answer:

Give her some healthy foods like carrot or even bread dipped in milk? .. Ermm leave them for about 4-6 week's with the mother and do not touch the babies.. The mother may not like your smell on them and kill them :( make sure she has plenty of water and food and also bedding :)

Other Answers:

• She sounds ill. If she does give birth, leave the hamsters and their nest COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY alone. Just don't touch the nest. At all. Disturbing them will make the mother eat her babies. Just put fresh food down every day and change the water. And if the mum pees in the corner of the cage, take out the wet wood shavings and replace them with clean bits. Take the mum to the vets, so she can check her. She will probably check her for free, my vet does checks for free. Being lazy and drinking lots is a sign of illness in hamsters. All hamsters make nests and bury their food there. Any when did you get her? 16 days is the length of the Syrian hamsters pregnancy. 30 days is the length of the dwarf hamsters pregnancy. So unless you got her really recently, like less than a month ago, there's no way she could be pregnant.
• She sounds ill but if she is pregnant DO NOT TOUCH THE BABIES FOR A FEW WEEKS!!!! If you touch the babies the mother hamster will get nervous and eat them!!! Make sure their cage is in a quiet place so her mother nurses her babies well. If you really want to separate them wait a little until they are about 3 weeks old. They cant survive on their own because of that. Make sure you give the mommy hamster a lot of food and don't play with her for 2 weeks. And don't touch the nest or else when she gives birth she will eat her babies.Best of luck!
