That reminds me of the time that we bought our daughter a hamster. I told the people I wanted a male. My daughter was probably about 8 then. She came home from school and went upstairs to check on her hamster, then she started screaming. I couldn't figure out what was wrong. She came running downstairs and said "Mom" there are these little tiny things in the cage and on the floor. I went upstairs and they were baby hamsters. Needless to say they were cute and very very tiny......LOL.....so much for getting a male hamster..ha ha
Oh yes this to happened to us from Petland about 4 years ago, we bought Syd a "male" hamster and a week later there was 5 babies, next day 3, next day 1, she didnt kill that baby but boy was it hard trying to explain to a 3 yr old where "her" babies were going! I kept thinking see this is WHY I wanted ONE male not a female
