Hey there, my name is Matt and I’ve had my fair share of experiences with hamsters. I remember one time, I had a female hamster named Daisy and a male hamster named Rocky.<\/p>\n

I was convinced that they were the perfect match and would make the cutest little hamster babies. So, I put them in the same cage<\/a> and waited for the magic to happen.<\/p>\n

Well, let me tell you, things did not go as planned. Daisy ended up attacking Rocky and biting his ear off. I was in shock, and didn’t know what to do.<\/p>\n

I quickly separated them and took Rocky to the vet, but unfortunately his ear was beyond repair.<\/p>\n

From that day on, I learned that just because two hamsters<\/a> are of opposite sexes, it doesn’t mean they’re going to like each other.<\/p>\n

And it also made me wonder, can hamsters even mate<\/a> with their own offspring?<\/p>\n

The answer is yes, hamsters can and will mate with their offspring if given the opportunity.<\/strong><\/p>\n
