Hello. I have a male and a female hamster kept apart of course) and I was considering breeding. However, I would like some advice first. I've never bred from hamsters before and do not want to enter it lightly. Firstly, I was worried that my two would not be suitable, as my female is one year older than the male and is around two years old. Is that too old for a hamster? Would it be better the breed from a younger one?

Also, I was also wanting to know a little bit about housing for the babies. I know hamsters tend to fight amongst each other and would like to know around which age the babies should be seperated, should I go ahead and breed.

Answers to these questions and any extra information would be absolutely brilliant. Thank you.
