Hamsters typically develop their winter coat in response to changes in daylight and temperature as the seasons shift. This process usually begins in late fall, around October to November, depending on their environment. The thicker coat helps them retain warmth during colder months. However, it's important to note that not all hamster breeds exhibit a noticeable winter coat change.
