AnswerHi Pam,
If they mated about 2 months ago, she would have had babies way before now. Types of Syrian hamsters gestation period is 16 days and a type of Dwarf hamsters gestation period is 18 days.
You say you are using cedar bedding, this type of bedding is toxic to hamsters and needs to be changed as soon as possible (pine is also). It can cause many different health problems and in some cases, even death. The best type of bedding to use is either Aspen or a type like Critter Care.
If you have anymore questions, please write again.
Thank you for writing!
