Normally hamsters are separated at 6 weeks old. If they are fighting and ar under that age I would speak to your local vet or pet shop.

They might cause a fight, if same gender, If not the same gender, the they will (most likely) have babies, and when a female hamster has babies, you have to help the babies come out. And if you touch the hamster babies AT ALL, the mother will eat them. I don't recommend buying another hamster.
