How do winter white hamsters live in the wild?

Question by geckogirl46: How do winter white hamsters live in the wild?
Do they live alone or in groups? Is it normal for them to live with others?

Best answer:

Answer by CountryGirl
Winter Whites [Siberian]. These hamsters live in Siberia. They live on flat land with short grass. There are not many people and these hamsters are not afraid of humans. In snow, they can change their fur color to white so that they blend in better. The female will live with two males in a burrow and the males will help with the babies.
Hamsters live in burrows that are like underground tunnels. The tunnels can be very large and have many rooms. One room is used for sleep, one to store food, and another to stay in for a short time. Sometimes these tunnels are over 11 yards long. They will cover the entrance with a stone. Burrows might have more than one entrance.
Scientists disagree whether wild hamsters really hibernate. They like to be in 65-80 degree Fahrenheit temperatures. When the temperature goes below 40 degrees Fahrenheit, they go into a temporary hibernation, or torpor. With torpor, their body temperatures drop lower, their heart rate drops to 5-15 beats a minute [instead of 250-500], and they sleep for long periods of time. Another sign of torpor is that hamsters will wake up every week or so. They will stay awake for about eight hours, eat, drink, and then go back to sleep. The difference between hibernation and torpor is how long the sleep times are and how much the animal’s bodies slow down. Most of our sources said that wild hamsters go into torpor like bears and are not true hibernators.

Tips for breeding hamsters ?

Question by melissssaa: Tips for breeding hamsters ?
Okay. So i’m planning on breeding hamsters. all i need is a female :S
Oh and don’t worry i found future homes for about 10 baby Syrian hamsters.

So my question is:
My male syrian hamster is currently about 8 months old.
if i get a female Syrian hamster thats about 4-6months old it won’t be a problem breeding right ?
I’m jsut scared that my male hamsters too old/ big.

Also. where i’m at its winter, should i wait til its a warmer season to breed them ?

Also i need advice on what colours i should choose for the female
should i get a solid black syrain hamster ( also called a black bear hamster in pet stores) or a black and white teddy bear hamster ?
or a white and cream hamster- or is it too close of a colour to my male hamster ? :S

HERES A PICTURE OF MY BABY :) ( my male syrian hamster) and sorry about the picture with him on moneyt, it jsut shows his patterns more.

ALSO:
i heard breeding him with a hamster thats the same colour as him may resukt to a genetic defection:
like some babies would be born with one eye or no eyes or no legs or justt 3 legs,

is it true >?

I have bought hamsters from a pet shop and am not sure it was a good idea?

Question by aunty_ames: I have bought hamsters from a pet shop and am not sure it was a good idea?
I have had one hamster die from diarrhoea, had them replaced and now one of them seems to be ill again! What am i supposed to do? I have only had them less a week and i dont want to pay out fortunes on vet bills. Is there anything i can give them to make them better? It is getting stupid, i thought having a pet was a good idea, now im not so sure but they are so cute!

Answer by fluffy_aliens
Getting a pet is a great idea. Getting one from a pet store is a very bad idea. Chances are, every hamster in that store is sick. I wouldn’t be surprised if every rodent in that store is sick.

I’m sorry you’re having to deal with this. It really sucks to have a pet just to have it get sick. Without taking it to the vet though, I don’t know what can be done for your little guy. I hope your next experience with pets is better than this one is.

all about breeding dwarf hamsters?

Question by Alex: all about breeding dwarf hamsters?
i have two female russian dwarf hamsters and i am thinking about breeding them(most likely lending them out to a friend with a male hamster). i have some questions such as, what other kind of hamsters can they be bred with, and what are the pros and cons.

Answer by sbajcar
Just remember, you are going to have at least 10 hamsters after words. Dwarf hamsters are the hardest of them all, and you need to be VERY careful. Make you have a bunch of males, because they can kill each other.
