Roborovski baby dwaf hamsters

White faced roborovski baby dwarf hamsters 9 days old till 15 days old.
The 3 of the babies got an eye infection right when their eyes opened- so that's why the fur around their eyes sometimes looks kind of matted. I was using a diluted saline mix to wash off the gunk so they could open their eyes.

Oh and P.S. For those who have asked, the mom is NOT eating her baby. She is just carrying it across the cage. Mother hamsters aren't as particular as cats about where they grab onto their baby to carry it. They just grab whatever they can reach and go... In this case, the mom grabbed a leg.

ALL the babies in this video survived. The oldest of the babies passed away December 4, 2009. He would've been 3 years old on January 3rd!!! One month short of his third birthday.

One of these babies had a photo submission accepted, click on this link to see it: http://cuteoverload.com/2009/12/07/make-it-a-triple-actually/

I just started a Flickr account, check out my hamster photos: http://www.flickr.com/photos/ninithedreamer/

Oh and question: How the h*** to you teach your hamster to use the clear rolling ball? Mine is either dumb or lazy cuz he won't move in it.

@farmgurl564 I'm not sure. It's pretty much instinctive. I'm on my 11th and 12th hamsters now (this is a very old video) and they all just pick up on it. Do you have carpeting? That might be the problem.

@KNLUV1 No, mother hamsters carry their babies from whatever body part they can reach
