Your hamster doesn't need to go in the ball everyday ,
If your hamster has an exercise wheel then you can put them in the ball when you want to.
I have 2 hamsters and they both have hamster balls and i only put them in it 3 times a week at the most :)
If the 1 year old hamster is a syrian hamster DO NOT put another hamster with it. They are hamsters that NEED to be alone. If it is a dwarf, hamster, it might be ok. Dwarf hamsters like having each others company. However, if the 1 year old hamster is not use to other hamsters, it might not go over to well.
A hamsters water needs to be re filled every day so that they have a full bottle. Often the best bottles are ones with a little ball that the hamster licks, this way the water only releases in drops and avoids waste.
because your hamster hasn't gotten the chance or knowledge to drink water for itself. in these cases. you should get baby droppers and force water. or the hamster could be dehydrated or sick.
Hamsters need salt for the same reason we do, without it our nervous system could not function. It is not mandatory to have a salt lick or salt wheel for your hamster but it would be a good idea. Hamsters live in the wild where they get their minerals from plants and stuff. Hamsters can't always get minerals and the salt they need in their cage that's why its a good idea to get a salt lick or something for your hamster.
Yes it does you need to give the hamster food the way it is not cooked
They need a little hamster ball that they can roll in.
No, But hamsters are cool.
Hamster do not need to be played with everyday, remember Hamsters get tired as well! If you are forgetting to clean, feed, and care for your Hamster yes it could die or get a disease. If this happens it would be best to get your animal doctor for some help.
You don't need one, but it is best to have one. Hamster balls enable hamsters to get a session of good excersise. Although most hamster cages have wheels which provides excersise hamster balls enable you to controll the amount of excersise a hamster gets.
When you purchase a hamster you will need a cage, a bottle, a food bowl, a house, sawdust, bedding, food, and an exercise ball. A wheel is optional. Some hamsters like cardboard tubes to play in too.
No, unless the hamster has rabies. if the hamster is a household pet, then no. Hamsters rarely bite, anyway.

Yes. Because hamsters need playtime and exercise from their owners every day! Just like dogs and any other pet. Try to play with you hamster at least for 10 minutes everyday.
Hamsters will need to be taken to a vet, and he or she will give you a prescription if needed or, they will tell you what will need to happen for your hamster to live a happy life.
