My Roborovski hamster is on her second litter now, her first died over a few days after their fur started growing. Now her second litter are dying. They are at the same stage in growth as the last. They seem fine then die suddenly. This morning I took this pic, a few hour later one died and a few hours ago another. I don't understand why, they seem healthy.

I have removed the wheel and am suplimenting the females diet. I have done all what those generic hamster forums have told me and that litter died.

I don't know squat about hamsters....but just a guess, there are humans who give birth to genetically unviable babies. Maybe you happen to have a hamster with one too many recessive genes and you can be doing everything right, yet the babies will always die.

What I'm saying in my uneducated ignorance on the subject is, you may be doing everything entirely right and the animal may just be incapable of producing healthy offspring.

Now if you get an entirely different hamster and the same thing happens...

Also the Mother is quite stupid she runs around the cage away from the babies quite a lot and before we took the wheel out she would run on the wheel with babies in her mouth, she also runs around with them attacehed to her nipples

So don't breed this one. She's obviously not suited to motherhood.

Hamsters like many animals will abandon their young if there is too much human interference.
