Go to a site to learn how to sex dwarves. Then when these babies are old enough in a few weeks, put all the males with daddy so he can't mate with the mom again, of his daughters if you don't remove them.

atteiotnWhat? Are you trying to spell attention? That's what I am thinking you are trying to do. Give her normal attention. If you bother her too much and she thinks you have become a threat to her babies, she will canabalize them to keep you from hurting them.

Hi ferr3tfan, my dwarf hamster (winter white) just gave birth to 6 healthy pups about 5 days ago and they are doin' a gr8 job together. You do have to separate the mommy and daddy if you dont expect more pups every month because they can mate even 24hrs right after the pups were born.

uhh well i started out with 3 guppies. Two females and 1 male. One female had 17 babies. I put the trio into a 10 gallon tank... So the 17 babies were in a 1.5 gallon tank for about two months.. To make a long story short, I have about 53 miniature guppies.. about 11 males and the rest females. only one parent is alive. The males are in a 5 gallon and the females in a 10 gallon... so ya lol

I know they multiply like crazy, I have 3 females and 4 males in a 20 gallon tank and then i have the 1 month old babies in a 2.7 gallon tank! When should i put them with the adults?

when they are big enough not to fit into thier mouths. Or about half the size of the adults.
