OK, so my two male ( ) roborovski hamsters have had babies. I went to clean out the cage and was greeted by a litter of 5 
The two parents seemed to be very aggresive towards each other, but this behaviour has only just started...question is what do I do in terms of:
Leave the parents together or seperate them?
Clean them out or leave them?
Any other advice would be much appreciated 
Will be heading to Pets at Home 2moro ASAP for some advice 
Thanks in advance

if you can identify which was which, i'd leave the mum with the young, and separate the male away

Who sex'd them?
I'd go for compensation...
But yeah ideally you need to take the father away from the moher and the babies

Isn't it hamsters that kill they're babies if there are an odd amount? I swear they do.. They only like even numbers so they will kill one?
