At first i wondered how shitty the parachute must’ve been, but then I remembered that I had dwarf hamsters as a kid, not normal ones.
Also for some reason my mom made the mistake of getting a boy and a girl and they did exactly what you’d think. Except that the cage was too small for that many critters and the momma started eating the babies out of stress…
Dont worry she didnt eat all of them! I think we had like 3 or 4 generations of inbred hamsters before we finally got a second cage and segregated them.
… as an adult i am staunchly against any “pet” that has to be kept in a cage or enclosure.

Oh! The hamster mom. Not your mom.
Ok, that’s a bit less horrifying.
Yeah rodents have interesting behavior like that. They have absolutely no qualms eating a friend or their own offspring if they need the resources.
I once had two mice. The next morning, I still had two mice, but one of them was missing its head.
