Hamster Breeds

Campbell's dwarf hamster was created in 1905.

No vet will neuter a hamster unless it's needed due to an emergency. Hamsters (including dwarf varieties) are generally too small and frail to undergo surgery requiring general anaesthetic, most likely that would kill them.

Yes, it matters if your Russian Dwarf hamster has long nails since it gets dirty,can break and even hurt your hamster.If you want, you should go to the vet and get your hamster's nails trimmed. If you cant afford to pay for the vet, since vets cost a lot of money, get a nail clipper made for small animals and then cut your hamster's nails. But, you should ask a professional first.

I think you should take your hamster to the vet if it broke it's leg. It is probaly the best sullotion

All the animals that I can think of bite--except for goldfish. Russian Dwarf hammies DO bite, but it's in their natural instinct. You can tame this out of them, though. It will take a lot of time and patience. I am saying this as an experienced dwarf owner. Play with the hammiw everyday, DO NOT wake it up while its sleeping, and feed it food and treats by hand.
yes, Russian dwarf do bite, i had the same question and had my hamster answer it. Dwarf Hamsters are more 'Nippy' and more territorial of their cages than Syrian, if you scare you hamster or take it away from its food bowl it may bite if you want to try this it might help: put a towel on your hands then place the hamster on you hands with the towel on it, make it trust you again by , talking nicely to it and it should start to trust you after a while....... hope this works for everybody!!!! no fancy Russian dwarf hamsters do not bite but most other breeds of hamsters do

No, but they can use body language to communicate to each other.

All hamsters have pouches located right where the cheeks would be. The opening to the pouch is located in the mouth so that is why a hamster would be spitting out food and placing big pieces of food in their mouth.

Some dwarfs may be sexually mature at 30 days. Campbells, Siberians and Chinese hamsters will normally begin breeding when they are between 60 and 90 days old. Roborovskis are not that predictable, they have been known to have their first litters at anytime between 4 to 18 months of age.

The gestation period for dwarfs is between 18 and 30 days, 21 days is the average for all dwarfs apart from the Roborovski which is normally about 30 days.

cheekolol, : )

usually about 8-12, but sometimes they eat some of their young so they will have less to look after, so you might find less than a normal amount if your hamster has babies.

You cannot stop two hamsters from fighting. It doesn't matter what two genders they are, or how young or old. They will keep having that urge to fight with each other. The only way to prevent them from fighting would be to put them both in separate cages, each cage a large enough cage so they could each have enough space that they are comfortable with. There's that way, or you could always sell one if you wish to take that route.

I've dealt with hamsters before.

Definitely not cedar wood shavings.

The smallest hamster is a robo hamster.

No. But it can get the hic-ups! That's when it makes a little "Squeak!"

No.

Dwarf hamsters and all hamsters cannot eat tomatoes!

If they are adults, you can identify a male by his testicles. If they're still young, you can tell the sex by the distance between the anus and the urethra: shorter on females, larger on males.

Sometimes hamsters lick each others bottoms prior to mating. If you don't want baby hamsters, I suggest you separate them.

Pretty Much. Yes They Do, Because of Where they were born is a VERY HEALTHY PLACE! Robo Dwarfs Live for 2 -4 years! I have 1 robo female i had for 3 months. And my two chinese dwarfs for 3 and 4 months

Hamsters are mammals, and all mammals belong to the taxonomic domain of Eukarya.Eukarya covers all organisms in the Kingdom Animalia, as well as the Kingdoms Plantae, Fungi and Protista.

If your hamster bit her baby's head off it means she's stressed or the baby was weak and wouldn't make it.

Hamsters have loose skin, and if the skin is pulled tight around their faces, it will make their eyes look like they are bulging out. But the eyes themselves are still in their normal position, it's just your perception of them that changed.

Well, the hamster should be very active and running around the cage they have at the pet store. If the hamster is in the corner or is in the igloo house, then that may not be the best choice. For example, the hamster could be on the hamster wheel, that's a good choice!

well im no expert but id imagine it could die of starvation because it would be to painful to walk to food and water but if it was the one leg it could possibly manage on three legs as cats and dogs do

No, teddy bear hamsters are Syrian hamsters.

NO NO NO!!! ABSOLUTELY NOT!!!!! the male will eat the newborns and you will be getting ready to go to a funeral! PLEASE put cardboard between the adult male and the female with newborns. Make sure to feed her a TINY bit extra if she is nursing.

P.S. And exchange the cardboard with wood if he starts to nibble through the cardboard!!!

There is no real, existing animal with purple fur.
