New Babies

[mm80205n]

My hamster had babies !! :D I'm so excited yesterday @ night when the female came out to eat I picked up to house to make sure the babies were alive, i though she would get nervous but she didn't mind me looking, i think she trusts me. So there were 4 pups. They were so sweet. The problem is that the male is kind of weird his belly fur has this yellow stuff which looks nasty and its a bit wet. What's wrong with him?? It's been there since she gave birth and I'm scared of thouching him. Will it come off??

PS- I have so many people lined up for the babies but I want to give them away in pairs, hopefully they are equal in gender. :hug:

after birth, or pee? I wouldn't worry about it though...

The yellow stuff is coming out of the males scent gland, he is excited about all his new pups, in a couple days it will go away.
