At what age can dwarf hamsters begin to mate?

I have two baby dwarf hamsters and it is too soon to determine the gender. I am going to need to separate them if they happen to be of the same gender. I would like to know how much time the two can spend together before they may have to be separated.<br />
<br />
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated and exciting, for this is my first posted question...<br />

they should at least be 8 weeks (fully grown) so that it does not put too much strain on them or stunt their growth.

It depends on what state you are in . In California they have to be 16, but if you live in Tennessee they can be 12.

ok well about a month but it depends on how big they are, but when there fur starts looking greasy then they are grown up (because all my grown up hamster have greasy fur)
