Is it better to have a bowl of water or a water bottle for a hamster?

Definitely a bottle of water. Specific hamster bottles have a little ball inside and when the hamster licks it the water comes out. This means that a hamster can have the water when he wants. A bowl of water is likely to get spilled and can also be quite dangerous for the hamster.

most hamsters drink naturally when they are ready if they have been bought up using a simple bottle in there cage but if they don't know how to use the bottle you could buy another type of water bottle or bowl i suggest the new one from pets at home its a small bowl that you put water in and then put the grid on top that lets a small amount of water out so that they can drink a water easier and also won't drown in it. another way is to put small amount water in your hand from the bottle showing the hamster how to do it and then let is drink out your hand

You should just put water in the water bottle and food in the food bowl. If your hamster is hungry, he/she will just go and eat it. Most times, your hamster won't be hungry because pet stores supply food in their cages.
