Question
one of my Russian dwarfs 4 week old babies got out and i don't know how to find him

Answer
I think it is going to be very hard to recapture him again with him being so small!

i think the best thing to do would be to get a 'live mouse trap'.  Dont Worry!  it doesnt hurt the hamster at all, we have two of them, they are made in a way which lets the hamster in but not out.

You should be able to get them at the local pet store / hardware store.

Good Luck
