Gerry is still pregnant!

[terri]

well as the subject said she is a size of a little house and im guessing she has to be coming up for 6 weeks, if she became pregnant after her first litter.
Is this normal? lol thought it was 32 days . the 1st litter pups is going to be 6 weeks tomorrow meaning sat. even if she became pregnant say few days after that she is well into 5 weeks. she dont have the 1st litter to drive out of nest as she isnt in with them and she has started to make a 2nd nest in the second house...
LOL sry im just getting excited to see how many she has this time, as she is far bigger than 1st time.Ive been saying to my daughter oh she prob have em tonight! ive been saying this since last week LOL.

I bet she'll have pups any day now! Often if the first mating doesn't take, the female will go into heat again in about 6 days. That's probably why she is taking so long. I've heard of pregnancies of up to 40 days when nursing.

Aw, I love those hamsters! I've never seen ones like that before...are they friendly?

I have only had one hamster in my life, a rescue with no eyes. He was also deaf. He was the friendliest hamster I've ever met, although when I first got him, he would roll over and screech when I touched him, even when he was awake...he couldnt see me coming! So, I started blowing on him before I would touch him, and after a while, whenever I blew, He would run to the front of his cage and stand up! He was great...he could fit 43 cheerios into his cheeks ;D
