What should you do if your baby hamsters are behind your wall somewhere in your basement and won't come out?

Fish the hamster out.

Take a hamster treat out and firmly tie it to a long piece of thread. If you don't have specially made hamster treats, use vegetables, fruit, bread, or even peanut butter. Use something with a obvious smell. Cast your "hamster line" into that crevice and slowly reel it in. Make sure your hamsters are following the food. Once they are close enough, put a barrier behind the crevice so they won't go in again. Next, quickly scoop them up!

What is wrong if a hamster is dragging its back legs but still uses them on occasion and there is no vet for 400 miles?

That really depends on a few things:

  • If your hamster isn't always dragging its legs, that means that when it is, it's "scent marking", or in a non-scientific manner, telling you what's his.
  • If your hamster is always dragging its back legs, you should probably get a vet to check it out.

This is exactly what happened to my hamster. I took him to the vet and the vet gave him some pain killers and some antibiotics in an injection. The vet will ask you to come back 24 hours later.

In those 24 hours take out all there wheels, tubes and that kinda stuff and make sure you keep them warm and feed them a tiny bit of bread soaked with low fat milk for calcium. Then take them back to the vet the next day.
