Question
QUESTION: I talked to you a couple days ago about questioning my hamsters pregnancy. Now she is bleeding quite bad and is very agitated. What is going on PLEASE HELP!

ANSWER: Hi Chelsea,

    Did your hamster end up giving birth? If not, she should be seen by a vet as soon as possible. This bleeding could be a sign of an infection.

QUESTION: No there was no babies from what I could see. Do you think she could of ate them. The bleeding stopped the next morning and now she is fine.

Answer
Hi Chelsea,

    It is very possible she could have ate the babies. I would still keep an eye on her for the next few days to make sure she does not have anymore bleeding.
