We went out of town on the 4th and came back today. My son had just gotten a hamster 2 weeks ago from the pet store. We left plenty of food and filled the water bottle knowing he would be find for the weekend. Today we see that SHE had babies while we were gone! I didn't get to look at them long enough to see how many, but looks like at least 5 little pink bodies. My 10 year old son is a little shocked that he is a she, but he changed the name and is proud of his little mother.
