No,no,and definitely not.

That is a very bad idea. A male hamster should NEVER be placed in a female's cage, because female hamsters are very defensive about their territory,and will attack your male if he is placed in her cage. If you want the perfect set-up for more hamsters, you should put the female in the male's cage. Since males aren't as defensive about their territory as females, the female will get used to your male hamster's scent. Then they might eventually mate,then you should take her out of his cage.

This happened when I first had 3 dwarf hamsters. We put our smallest one, Snowy, into our ferocious female hamster's cage , Paws (it was Chompers at the time, but we changed the name), and she tackled Snowy all over the place. He would have been killed if we hadn't have taken him out. A few years later, I learned in a book about hamsters and their mating, and discovered our problem with putting Snowy in Paws' cage.

Why is my hamster going in circles It share its cage with 1 other hamster and its cage is 7 by 12. Why Everything seems normal on my hamster. HELP?

Hamsters aren't supposed to share cages if there syrians(dwarf hamsters can share a cage very happily). Your hamsters could kill eachother; hamster's nature is to roam alone. However, if you have one male hamster, and one female hamster, this may not apply, as the female can, well, you know, with the male and before you know it.... pop goes the BABIES. Be prepared.

Should you put two dwarf hamsters in the same cage?

If they are Roborofskis or Winter Whites, then the answer is a definite yes. These dwarf hamsters are very social, and require the company of at least one of their own kind. However, do not put two different species of dwarf hamsters in the same cage. They will fight. Also, unless you intend to breed, only put hamsters of the same gender in one cage, or else you'll have a hamster population explosion!Also, do not put a Syrian with a dwarf hamster.
