Capri, my foster syrian hamster and her newborn pups.

Recently, there was a case of irresponsible breeding where the previous owner did not separate a female n male syrian. Within months, the population grew to be 31. Initially he had thoughts of selling the babies but as time passed, nobody bought them. He kept 8-10 syrian in plastic storage drawers, and on pine wooden pellets, all in a small room with no ventilation. He had given up and surrendered all to a kind lady who rescued them.
Im helping her foster 2 females which had the pear shaped body, knowing they were going to deliver soon. True enough, Capri gave birth on the very same day even before i could transfer her out of her carrier cage. I placed the whole carrier in an ikea bin and she knew to move the babies into a corner.
This is day 1 of the pups lives, and their journey continues...
As i said in my previous video, please separate hamsters or any animal according to gender, otherwise they will breed continuously. Also, syrians are solitary animals and must live alone. This set up is temporary, but a full set up should include wheel, hideouts, toys, food bowl and a water bottle.
The babies will be ready to leave to new homes in a months time. No charges for adoption but do note that i will be screening any potential adopters.
