Hamsters

You dont need to teach a hamster anything. They know what they need to know already. If you mean that you want them to be more relaxed and more loving,

Then you need to show them more attention daily, and let them build up trust with you.

Hamsters are born live, fully formed, and hairless. The gestation period for hamsters is around 16-22 days, and a mother hamster can give birth to a litter of 4-12 pups on average. It's important to provide a quiet and warm environment for the mother and her pups during the first few weeks after birth.

They don't really. They have a pouch on each side of their face and, as they travel around, they collect seeds and other foodstuffs in it. Once they arrive at their nest, they empty the food out. They will eat some and leave some for later.

Hamsters are sensitive to changes in temperature and may not survive well in a shed outside. It's essential for them to be kept in a controlled indoor environment to ensure their health and well-being. Outdoor sheds are not suitable habitats for hamsters.

Just give her everything she needs. Plenty of food and water. During this time it's best not to pick up your hamster as much - especially towards the end of her pregnancy. Pregnant hamsters sometimes often pull out their fur, to make a nest in preparation of her unborn babies. This, however, is completely normal.

The Syrian hamster is typically the heaviest species of hamster, weighing between 4 to 7 ounces (113 to 198 grams) when fully grown. However, individual hamsters may vary in weight depending on factors such as genetics, diet, and exercise.

Monkeys do not typically sleep upside down. They usually sleep lying down, sitting, or even curled up in a hammock-like position. While some monkey species like spider monkeys or orangutans may occasionally hang from tree branches while sleeping, they are not usually seen sleeping completely upside down.

No, male hamsters cannot have babies. Only female hamsters can give birth.

A newborn hamster is smaller than a newborn rat. Hamsters are typically 2-3 inches long at birth, whereas rats are around 4-5 inches long. Additionally, hamster pups are born hairless and blind, while rat pups are born with fur and their eyes closed.

All pet hamsters are descended from a single female wild golden hamster found with a litter of 12 young in Syria in 1930.

Hamsters can have various enemies, including predators such as cats, dogs, birds of prey, and snakes. In addition, hamsters can also be prone to stress from loud noises, sudden movements, and handling by inexperienced owners. It is important to provide a safe and secure environment for hamsters to help protect them from potential threats.

It could be a tumor, abscess, or infection. It's important to have a veterinarian examine it to determine the cause and provide appropriate treatment. Prompt medical attention is recommended to ensure the health and well-being of your hamster.

If you mean mine personally, then yes they could. But I'll assume your question is "when is your hamster ready to mate?"

They can reproduce at 6 weeks, but for the hamsters health, its best to wait until they are a few months old. But breeding is not advised. Really.

1. A gerbil has got a long tail and a hamster has a short stub. 2. A gerbil is a bit like a rat, but smaller, with a furry tail and a shorter snout. 3. Gerbils LOVE chewing and shredding up things, but hamsters don't as much. 4. Gerbils come from the desert. They don't pee very often because they don't drink much. 5. Gerbils are awake during the day. Hamsters are nocturnal. 6. Hamsters have more dark meat.
A gerbil is much less a people critter. A gerbil also sleeps 4 hours, then is awake four hours. A hamster (notice the spelling, no p) is noternal. Plus, a gerbil chews everything, while a hamster doesn't. Therefore, a gerbil cannot be put into the plastic houses for ever, because they will find a way to eat it and escape.

you can tell by the color of it. if it is a brownish black color than its a boy. if it a light color then its a girl

Actually, I have 2 boy guinea pigs. One is a brownish black, and one is a light golden caramel color. The only way you can tell is the way you can tell for humans. You could also ask a store that owns guinea pigs to tell you, or ask a vet, or a breeder who knows about guinea pigs. Color has no relevance to a guinea pig's gender.

Did you happen to hold the baby?!?! Your action might harm the babies and change its scent thus confuses the mother. She will think that they are not hers, abandon them and worst she might even eat the babies. If you did hold the baby the mother probably stoped feeding it which made it sick. === === === === * Separate the sick hamster from other hamsters if you are afraid that the sickness/disease could be contagious. * Clean up the cage and if possible sterilized all parts including toys, tubes, bottles and wheels. * All used bedding and unfinished foods should be discarded. * Keep the sick hamster in a quiet place away from any noisy environment to keep the hamster calm and prevent any further stress * Provide the sick hamster with enough water * In the mean time, monitor health condition of other hamsters for the same symptoms.

I'm very sorry but there is probably nothing you can do to save him/her. Just make sure you don't make the same mistake with the other hamsters.

Hamsters should not go more than 24 hours without food. It is important for them to have a steady supply of food to ensure they receive proper nutrition and prevent health issues. If a hamster is not eating, it is important to consult a veterinarian to determine the underlying cause.

If your hamster has a broken leg, it's best to consult with a veterinarian to discuss treatment options. In some cases, the leg can be splinted or surgically repaired. The decision to put the hamster to sleep should be based on the advice of the vet and the hamster's overall quality of life.

Yes, hamsters can become paralyzed due to various reasons, such as spinal cord injuries, strokes, or neurological disorders. Paralysis in hamsters can affect their ability to move their limbs or walk. Seeing a veterinarian as soon as possible is crucial if you suspect your hamster is experiencing paralysis.

If a hamster loses all its teeth, it can have difficulty eating and may need a special soft diet, as well as regular vet check-ups to monitor its health. Ensuring the hamster has access to soft foods and providing appropriate enrichment to prevent stress or boredom is important for its overall well-being.

If the 1 year old hamster is a syrian hamster DO NOT put another hamster with it. They are hamsters that NEED to be alone. If it is a dwarf, hamster, it might be ok. Dwarf hamsters like having each others company. However, if the 1 year old hamster is not use to other hamsters, it might not go over to well.
