Best Answer

Hamsters usually show that they are jealous of another hamster by being aggressive to the hamster in question. Example, scratching, biting, hissing, snapping, or taking possessions away.

Why do hamsters become jealous? Well, they are like children, in a way. If you spoil one hamster, acquire another, and then completely forget about your previous spoiled hamster, it's bound to become jealous of the new "guy\girl in town."

Usually it's not a good idea at all to bring a male and a male hamster, a girl and a girl hamster, or a boy and a girl hamster unless (in the case of a boy and a girl) you wish them to mate. Males are territorial while females are also so. Boy and girl hamsters will fight, even if confronted with perfect mating conditions.

Just remember that it's all based on the hamster's personality and breed. Other than that, you'll do just fine. :)

How do you make your hamsters have babies in hamster life 2 the fastest?

Well, first off, the two hamsters have to like each other. that's really nesscesary. There really is no "fastest way" but there are some ways to speed up the process: 1 Give them their pills eveyday 2 checking the store regularly; the ownwer will tell you when your hamster is pregnant. 3 make sure that when the female is prenant that she gets moved to her own cage. 4 check on your pregnant hamster everyday (it takes around 12 days for the baby hamster to be born, so if theyre not born as quickly as ud like, just be patient! it will happen!) Hope this helps!

Can hamsters have cardboard in their cage?

No you can't put newspaper in a hamster cage. The dye and ink they use in newspapers can cause your hamster to get sick if they eat it. Use unscented toilet paper or paper towels. It is good to cut them into strips but don't cut it into small pieces because your hamster will do that itself. It likes to make it's own nest out of bigger materials.
