Winter White Russian hamsters are well known for changing their coat in winter. As the name suggests, they go white in winter (it's used as camouflage against the snow in the wild) and during summer they go brown (to blend in with their background after the snow has melted).
Yes, Syrian hamsters do grow a thicker coat for the winter. As the seasons change and temperatures drop, their fur becomes denser and fluffier, providing better insulation against the cold. This seasonal coat change helps them maintain body heat during colder months. However, in captivity, where temperatures are controlled, this adaptation may not be as pronounced.
All hamsters are nocturnal.
Hamsters can swim. They will drown if they do though.

I think a winter coat with a zipper does a better job in keeping the cold out since the zipper have no excess holes in the zipper area then the winter coats.
There are five main species of hamsters commonly kept as pets: Syrian, Campbell's dwarf, winter white dwarf, Roborovski dwarf, and Chinese hamsters. Each species has its own unique characteristics in terms of size, temperament, and care requirements.
it depends they can turn white in the winter or they can just stay that color
Yes. I'm pretty sure all hamsters do that, but I have a winter white that never empties her cheek pouches! :)
