Expert Answer

A male hamster can breed once it reaches sexual maturity, usually around four to six weeks of age, though waiting until it is a bit older improves health and success. Males remain fertile for much of their adult life.

Introduce a female carefully and separate them after mating to avoid fights. Avoid breeding related hamsters.
