it depends on how gentle your hampster is.if it's gentle and not active then i would say yes.but if it is active then the cage would might break and then that would count as a no.
I wouldn't say that either is better then the other but guinea pigs are more calm. also hamsters are most likely to bite some people say but they only bite if they are scared so if you don't scare them they won't bite simple. but also hamsters are actually lower in price and don't need that much room which is a plus on their side but they are also nocturnal and guinea pigs are awake during the the day and sleep at night. Another thing is that hamsters are more active then guinea pigs so they tend to run around a lot more but this is not true for all hamsters . guinea pigs on the other hand are mostly not that active but again this is not true for all guinea pigs . but something that is for fact guinea pigs must have another to lie with they can not live alone but with hamsters on the other hand they can live alone but then again that is not really good because if you try to put to hamsters in the same cage your looking for a fight. also if guinea pigs escape they are easier to catch.
Guinea Pigs are generally not lazy, they are very social and prefer to interact with thier owners.Ê Guinea Pigs prefer to live in a space where they have room to run and play.Ê

You should get a guinea pig if you have a family they are good with kids and easy to take care of. Hamsters are fun for you to handle on your own because kids could crush or step on them, but warning they chew on your plastic toobs.
I wouldn't try to house them together as the guinea pig is going to get a lot larger then the hamster. It can be done hamsters can be put with guinea pigs. I had a hamster and a guinea pig together at one time because they were both alone. As long as you watch them a while when you first do it to make sure they don't fight then it should work out fine. I had a golden hamster i wouldn't try it with a dwarf hamster or anything that small. But as long as they don't fight and the guinea pig don't hog all the food then it should be ok. But if you have more then 1 hamster and more than 1 guinea pig i would not try it. THIS ANSWER IS CRAZY HAMSTERS AND GUINEA PIGS SHOULD NEVER BE HOUSED TOGHETHER. JUST BECAUSE IT WORKED ONCE DOES NOT AND I REPEAT DOES NOT MEAN IT WILL WORK OUT IN MOST CASES!!!!!!! This answer is horrible. No, they can NEVER be housed together. A guinea pig can only be housed with another guinea pig! do NOT put a guinea pig and hamster together, the guinea pig is going to get much bigger than the hamster. plus they need different foods. (MRS.TYLER22) Well first off i have 4 guinea pigs and 2 hamsters and for play time when i do not feel like letting them run around the room i put the inside of this really large plastic tote that i use to use to put my clothes in (very spacious) all of them and they just play in there together no fighting just playin but i do not allow them to sleep with the guinea pigs remind you that this is just for play time.Every animal is different you might just have to try your animals together on a trial basis because noone can say that they cant play or that they can every animal again is DIFFERENT!!!!
Yes beccuse it can hurt baby guiniepigs. Infact It can even harm an adult guiniepig!
Yes as long as they are under supervision at ALL times.
Guinea pigs can potentially live in a barn, but they require specific conditions to thrive, such as protection from extreme temperatures, predators, and proper ventilation. It's essential to ensure the barn is secure, insulated, and that guinea pigs have enough space to move around and exercise. Regular care and monitoring are also necessary to ensure their well-being.
Guinea pigs, most likely have their babies during the night. I know that when I had my pregnant guinea pig, I kept her in my room until she had babies. She woke me in the middle of the night with her sounds while giving birth.
No, they don't usually enjoy them. Exercise balls can be dangerous, they are usually bad for their backs, so i wouldn't recommend using them. Instead I have a puppy pen that I put down in my living room on top of a blanket for exercise time! They have plenty of room to run around but can't get out and into trouble.
