My hamster has had four babies so far today, most sites say they have 10 minute intervals between each baby but mine took about an hour. Ne wayz... How long can a hamster be in labour for?
Thanx for any info you can give

If its taking that long I suggest taking her to a vet. The birthing could not go right and you could loose the babies and the mother

sorry i couldn't find nothin on labour but this might help about babies i got ir off www.petsathome.co.uk 'The length of pregnancy is 16 days, and hamsters will have an average litter size is 6, however this can vary. The young hamster's eyes will open after 10 - 15 days and can be removed from their mother at 3 weeks and will be fully grown by 3 months'
