This may of been caused by its nail not being cut. When the nails get too long they snap and break the guinea pigs foot. The guinea pig is in serious pain and cant walk to get food or water soo i would get it to the vets immediately. Hope this helps
If your hamster is dragging both her feet, it is essential to take her to a vet immediately. This behavior could indicate severe pain or complications from the broken leg that require urgent attention and treatment. Delaying medical care can worsen the situation for your hamster.
Your hamster will probably not walk on that leg, perhaps dragging it. Also, I had a hamster that broke her ankle, and she chewed off her foot. I brought her to the vet, and they said that they could try different types of surgeries, but they can't use any anesthesia. I decided that putting her to sleep was the best choice for her, because the surgeries sounded very painful. :( Good luck, and I hope your hamster's leg isn't broken.
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.
If your hamster is limping on its right hind leg, it could be due to a sprain, fracture, or other injury. It's important to consult a veterinarian experienced in handling small animals to properly diagnose and treat the issue. Avoid handling the hamster too much and provide a quiet, comfortable environment for rest and recovery.
It's important to seek immediate veterinary care for your hamster. A broken leg is a serious injury and requires professional treatment to ensure proper healing and prevent complications. In the meantime, you can gently place your hamster in a safe, comfortable environment to minimize movement and further injury.
This is hard to say without actually seeing the hamster but my guess is that its other leg got tired and the bones healed into that position. I strongly recommend to bring it to the vet for a check up.

Your hamster may be limping if it was climbing the cage and fell and then hurt itself. Or they could have an infection. Or they could be faking it which is VERY unlikely. My hamster started limping when it got a sugerpuff stuck to its leg, my mum thought its leg had fallen off!
I would personally have the hamster put down. It sounds as if it has a possible brain tumour or something wrong with it's brain. How old is the hamster? Has it been dropped on its head or has it fallen and hurt itself? I hope this can help x
you hsould have taken her to the ver when she broke her legs. go to the vet NOW. she needs help NOW.
== == Take the hamster to the vets!! Tell the vet you don't have any money, but you are willing to pay for any costs by cleaning out cages or walking some of the dogs out in the backyard of the vet's office. Most vets will help you. Your hamster leg is broken and painful, so start moving and get that hamster right into the vets NOW!
You must take the hamster to the vet. (sorry if that's exactly what you didn't want to hear) but for now, make sure it's eating and drinking. you can use a q-tip to feed it its proper nutrients
