hamster breeding

Now if we just line breed octo mom we should be getting 8+ litters(is that the right term?) Every ten months or so.

Adding a new question... I currently have 5 5 week old female hamsters in a cage together (future breeders). How long until I have to seperate them into the own cages?

Also am I able to put 2 different litters both born within a few days of each other into the same tubs but seperate for males and females?

You can run mixed but depending on the size of your grow out you will need to limit numbers. In a 64qt steralite your maxing at 20 really small and 15 subs. You are fine mixing litters your really only maxed by grow out bin size.

At what age are hamsters adults (~80grams?)

Just to let you know my hamsters are 13 weeks old and range from 75-85 grams.
