=_=;; Dwarfs can get pregnant right after the baby's are born. Separate the male from here to avoid her giving more litters.
Let me tell you...you dont sound very intelligent asking this. This is basic information.

that was not my question and i already knew that. and as for me not sounding intelligent maybe you need to read my question again cause you dont sound to intelligent yourself. you really pissed me off with that. and you know what my question that do hamsters mate even when they are pregnant was not basic information took me two hours to find that answer. no thanks to this website!

Your question was not very clear, so I don't think it's fair to be upset with this website.

Yes, they physically can mate, but the female typically will not go into heat and be receptive to a male while she is pregnant.

I'm new to this forum and I must say, I'm quite shocked at the replies you got! Not very helpful at all. I can't say I know very much about breeding hamsters, I imagine its pretty much the same as any other animal, they can have sex while pregnant and can get pregnant again straight after giving birth.
How did it go with the babies? I bet they were so cute <3

no they werent helpful at all lol. but its ok now. they were adorable and i kept one of them. she was the runt and still is so tiny even though she is full grown now. shes about the size of a 3 week old dwarf hamster. all her brothers and sisters are huge though. frankly im surprised that she servived at all with being apart of a first litter and of 9. i am very happy that she did. shes got a better temperment than her dad and her dads has one of the best ones lol.
