Your hamster will probably not walk on that leg, perhaps dragging it. Also, I had a hamster that broke her ankle, and she chewed off her foot. I brought her to the vet, and they said that they could try different types of surgeries, but they can't use any anesthesia. I decided that putting her to sleep was the best choice for her, because the surgeries sounded very painful. :( Good luck, and I hope your hamster's leg isn't broken.

How can you tell if your Roborovski hamster has broken his leg if he is still running and eating and sleeping but sometimes he lifts his leg like it hurts and he doesn't squeal?

I believe that this leg lifting activity is just a common issue with Roboviski hamsters because my hamster was presenting the same symptoms. upon a visit to the doctor the leg is not broken. possibly sore feet or legs from much running also it could possibly just be stretching its leg or it could be a genetically inherited trait of the type of hamster. Little is known about these hamsters currently but, I would just say for saving a trip to the vets sake the leg is not broken. Shawna
