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.
If your hamster has a broken leg, it's best to consult with a veterinarian to discuss treatment options. In some cases, the leg can be splinted or surgically repaired. The decision to put the hamster to sleep should be based on the advice of the vet and the hamster's overall quality of life.
broken rib
You can tell if a sparrow has a broken leg if it is unable to bear weight on the affected leg, holding it at an unusual angle, or if there is swelling or deformity. To help fix it, you should contact a wildlife rehabilitator or veterinarian for proper treatment and care, as they will need specialized assistance to recover. Avoid handling the bird too much to prevent causing further stress or injury.
no
I don't have a rooster... therefore it doesn't have a broken leg (in fact, it doesn't have a leg at all), therefore your question is invalid.
If they fall.
Yes, but you need to be careful not to do any further damage.
Take to the vet.
breaking its leg
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
you should go to a place that checks hamsters and they will tell you,but they will cost you alot of money so be carfull. the best thing to do while you wait is to take the hamsters wheel out so if it is broken they can not damage it even more
you can`t
take him 2 the vet
No, I do not have a broken leg, i had a broken arm but not a broken leg
If the leg is broken it will stand on one leg all day or lie on the bottom of its cage. Its best seeing a vet.

A hamsters leg shouldn't turn blue. If it does, seek veterinarian attention immediately.
