Baby hamsters

My teddybear hmster had 12babys almost 3 weeks ago and ther is one that is so much smaller then the others and its left side of its faceis looks a little caved in he seems to do ok he eats and plays just lie the others do do you think he will be ok?

Answer #1

Yeah hes probably the runt, and if he acts ok then hes ok, but if you see any signs of quarrel between the siblings and the runt or the mother and the runt, separate him immediately or they will kill him to rid the nest of any problems.

Answer #2

If he acts like the others then he will be fine. He may just be the runt
