I have 2 Chinese dwarf hamsters currently. One of them ended up dying, because they had some kind of cold or disease. We tried everything for that poor girl. Her name was Cheerio. BRING THEM TO THE VET! That's one thing that you shall do, because they will give you medication for the hamster. Yes, they have a vet for hamsters :) And so he died in my hand that night. It was terrible.
SIGNS OF THEM BEING SICK:
Hunched back
Loss of hunger/appetite
Inactivity/weak/tired/oozy
A dirty or matted coat/maybe even rough skin
Red or flaky skin
Lumps beneath the skin
Itchy
Heaving breathing
sneezing
dull eyes(half closed)
Shaking or shivering(sometimes they shiver because they are cold, mine shakes, but its not sick)
Wetness near the tail area( which that means tha]ey most likely have wet tail, check everyday because it might be pee as well)
Diarrhea
Thanks again...check online if you have anymor questions. I tried to explain everrything i kneww (; Biiiaa..
You can tell if its slepping right well if its slepping itll bite you bother it in its sleep
There is no clear cut way to tell what age a hamster is, you can only generalize by the size your hamster is. A hamster is fully grown at 6 months of age, and any fully grown hamster in a pet store is usually not more then 1 year old, usually 6-8 months.
Well, I once had a hamster that I think died of namonia
unlike the syrain hamster the dwarf hamster is very small, when the syrian hamster i larger and thicker and also with a lighter coulour. twsiter1998 gobstoper88
It's very simple to tell if you have a dwarf hamster, because they are much smaller and more active.
there not moving but their brething
You just said in your question its male so wouldn't that be the answer? ;)
Well you should wait about 4 or 5 weeks because if you hold them when they're not of the right age the mother of the hamster may eat the baby because of the scent you gave the hamster from holding it so wait a while unless you want your baby hamster to be eaten.
I suggest you go to your local pet shop they'll probably be able to tell.
Robo hamsters live for about 1-2 years. Probably 3. In some stores; like petsmart, they tell you descriptions about hamsters and how to handle them yourself.
Yes, any hampster can tell who their owner by the tone of your voice and smell.
