Gently hold the skin behind your hamster's ears and lift the hamster up. Don't worry about hurting him because that's how your hamster's mother held him. Look at the bottom of the hamster. If it's male, there will be two things that stick out about an inch apart. There will also be a light yellow spot on his stomache.
If it is female, there will be two things that stick out about a fraction of an inch apart. It is closer than a male hamster's. Also, there will be no yellow spot.
