i don't think so unless your hamster is very hungry
Small rodents may occassionally eat their own faeces as their digestive system is not as effective in extracting all the nutrients.
Yes chickens do eat their own feces. I use to own some and Ive seen then do it.
Eating their own faeces is a way to give the hamster's digestive system a second go at digesting the plant matter it eats. Plant cells have a strong cell wall, which is tough to digest, which is why hamsters and rabbits will eat their faeces.
Dogs need something in their body when they eat their own feces and feces of other animals. They usually do not have a dietary dficiency but it could be some type of medical disorder.

yes
you have to eat your own feces
Not really, as far as I know. My baby hamster bites the excretia then pulls it out because she is weak, she spits it out though, but my older hamsters don't do that anymore
Why on God's Green Earth would you want to eat your own feces ?
They eat their own feces to more effectively digest plant cellulose.
It is not recommended to eat your own feces. That's grotesque. There doesn't seem to be anything you can eat to make the excrement more edible.
No, hamsters do!
