A "teddy bear hamster" is a variety of the Syrian Golden Hamster, noted for a thick, long-haired coat. The colors are generally brown and tan with white markings, but some have black fur with white markings.
These hamsters have similar life cycles to other common hamsters. They are totally dependent on the mother for about 3 weeks after they are born, and can be kept in the company of their littermates (same gender) for about another 3 weeks. By this time they will be approaching adulthood. By two or three months of age, they are adults and capable of breeding. (They should be bred by 6 months if this is intended, because older hamsters can have difficulty with first matings after the age of 6 months.) Female hamsters have a gestation (pregnancy) period of just 16 to 18 days! Litters of 6 to 10 are common, although there can be more than a dozen pups.
They are generally best kept in separate cages, or with at most one or two other hamsters. Their life span is about two to three years.

Teddy bear hamsters are just long haired syrian hamsters.
Technically they only live in captivity, and never have lived in the wild due to natural causes. Teddy bear hamsters were selectively bred from ordinary short haired hamsters with unusually long coats, so probably originated from labs.

Teddy bear hamster is another name for a syrian hamster. Syrian hamsters are very territorial and are the only type of hamster which needs to live alone. If put with another the chances are they will fight. If you wish to keep hamsters in pairs it is better to buy Russians or Chinese hamsters which are more compatible.
It is not recommended to breed different species of hamsters, as this can lead to health issues and genetic problems in the offspring. Teddy bear hamsters and black bear hamsters are different species with different genetic backgrounds, so it is best to avoid breeding them together.
