No, they prefer to live alone. If they have company, they will fight and will try to kill each other.
Yes, since Russian Hamsters are Dwarf Hamsters - they can be kept in groups
No, you can have just one and it will be perfectly fine.
Most of the time, i have 2 Chinese dwarf hamsters kept in the same cage and they are fine, Hope This Helps
No, in fact, they are meant to live in pairs.
Any hamster is ok with being handled once they're used to it. You have to tame them when they are young. And dwarf hamsters are best for keeping in pairs. Not Syrian hamsters because they will fight. Hope this helps!
Yes. Chinese dwarfs like to live in pairs or groups.
A teddy bear hamster is a type of syrian hamster and can be identified usually by their golden fur. Russian dwarf hamsters are much smaller than syrian hamsters so it is easy to tell them apart
All the animals that I can think of bite--except for goldfish. Russian Dwarf hammies DO bite, but it's in their natural instinct. You can tame this out of them, though. It will take a lot of time and patience. I am saying this as an experienced dwarf owner. Play with the hammiw everyday, DO NOT wake it up while its sleeping, and feed it food and treats by hand.yes, Russian dwarf do bite, i had the same question and had my hamster answer it. Dwarf Hamsters are more 'Nippy' and more territorial of their cages than Syrian, if you scare you hamster or take it away from its food bowl it may bite if you want to try this it might help: put a towel on your hands then place the hamster on you hands with the towel on it, make it trust you again by , talking nicely to it and it should start to trust you after a while....... hope this works for everybody!!!! no fancy Russian dwarf hamsters do not bite but most other breeds of hamsters do
No Syrian hamsters are very Territorial and they like to live on there own but dwarf hamsters like to live in groups or pairs otherwise they would get too lonely.
Yes, female dwarf hamsters can engage in mutual grooming to help maintain each other's cleanliness and bond with each other. This behavior is commonly observed in social animals like hamsters, especially when they are kept in pairs or groups.
Dwarf hamsters are social animals and typically prefer to live with a same-sex companion for companionship and interaction. While they can survive alone, they may become stressed or lonely without a cage mate. It's generally recommended to keep dwarf hamsters in pairs or small groups to promote their mental and emotional well-being.
probably, syrian hamsters are solitary creatures, but i supose like any other creature, you can allways try, becuase it depends on the nature of those hamsters. Try gradually introduing them to each other, then put them together and see how they get on, move them into seperate cages if they start to fight, check regually for wounds if they live together. Dwarf hamsters are generally better for living in pairs.
