How to tell when a hamster is pregnant?

How can i tell if my dwarf hamster is pregnant?

  • I just bought a Dwarf hamster about 12 days ago. a week ago i added hay to her cage and now shes burrowing and storing food. i was wondering if theres anyway to tell if she is pregnant, since she has been acting funny since i put the hay in. She has been eating and drinking more and just started getting mad when i try to hold her, but once i get her out shes fine.

  • Answer:

    Mine didn't act unusually different when she was pregnant, but they are usually aggressive when you try to pick them up out of the cage anyways. I was able to see a noticeable difference in her stomach until a few days before she had babies. A few days before she had babies I picked her up and her belly was huge, so when she is pregnant, you will notice.

That sounds like fairly normal hamster behavior, so I wouldn't worry just yet. When the babies get older you can feel them inside her and she will look very fat and a little lumpy.
