Although Syrian hamsters are able to breed as young as 3-6 weeks of age this should be avoided as it is detrimental to the female's health and development. Therefore breeding a female at this age or buying such a young pregnant female from a pet shop or breeder should be avoided.
The ideal age to breed a female for the first time is when she is between 4 and 6 months of age. Breeding a female younger than this can stunt her growth, result in a poor litter and often leads to cannibalism of the litter. Breeding a female for the first time after 6 months can result in complications in giving birth and so is best avoided.
