I have some good news today!
Paprika is a mom now!
It’s Paprika, not Miso
They look similar
Both chubby and cute
Paprika has more energy
And she is more greedy
Miso is quite picky
The weight change tells all
100% pregnant...
I need a VIP room!
Now!
No problem
3 days before labour...
I moved her cage to a quiet room
Changed her bedding...
Added lots of tissue
Boiled egg white for extra protein
She loves it!
Mealworms are even better
But she hates them...
Oh, it’s egg
Never mind
Nutrition is the key to good health
She also got boiled chicken and vegs every day
Good source of natural protein & Vitamin A & E
Healthy treats for everyone!
Bear in mind though...
Pregnant hamsters tend to be more skittish
Especially when there are no toys or wheels
Busy building her nest
Better leave her alone
2 days before labour...
I gave her lots of dry food...
So she wouldn’t be disturbed when giving birth
I also made her oat porridge
With lactose free milk
All my hamsters love it
Some porridge for Daddy
I feel stronger!
More sunflower seeds were given to her...
They provide essential nutrients for the mother
I also installed a security camera in her cage
Sometimes I could see her babies!
Paprika is a careful mom
She made a big nest
It would not be a good idea...
To play with her now
Lesson learnt (the painful way)
I will try my best to take care of her
So she can be a happy mom
I hope the babies will grow up healthily
