I use to breed Hampsters. Mothers eatting babies is called "Pouching". They do it because they are stressed. Something around the cage is scaring her. And The male and female souldn't be kept together anyway. If You want to breed them, put them together to breed and them seperate them. When The Female's due date comes around, Cover the cage and keep her quiet. Dog food isn't the best idea. Try Hampster food. Also, Mine use to LOVE sun flower seeds. We only gave them dog biscuts to ware their teeth down. If the male is in the cage with the babies, He'll kill them too. I wouldn't call the female a "murderer", She just isn't comfortable. Hope this helps!

:My hamsters females are always eating her babies,i would like to know why.I changed already the females but the new ones as soon as they have babies they start eating them, too.I separate the father as soon as the babies are born so im sure the mother is the murderer!They eat the babies one by one!!One by day!The only thing that i do that is not 100% right is to give to my hamsters dog and cat food.They eat , they like , they are healthy but do you think thats the reason all my hamsters females eat their babies???Well i know this is not the right forum but perhaps there is an expert in hamsters here...Who knows??lol!
