Did you know?
There are 24 species of hamsters in total? They all belong to the family Cricetidae.
Hamsters are one of the most popular pets in the Netherlands. There are different types of hamsters. First of all, we distinguish between the normal Golden hamster (Syrian hamster) and the Dwarf hamsters. The most kept dwarf hamsters are:
Roborovski Dwarf Hamster
The Roborovski Dwarf Hamster is the smallest hamster species and can be kept together. However, a side note must be made here, because keeping them together is always a risk. Although the Roborovski Dwarf Hamster lives together in groups in the wild, this can still go wrong at home. Our advice is therefore always to inform yourself well and never just place strange animals together. Get good advice from a shelter or breeder of the animals before keeping them together.
Russian Dwarf Hamster
The Russian Dwarf Hamster is the most popular hamster species among the dwarf hamsters. This dwarf hamster is best kept alone. The animals can only be kept in a pair (male and female), but that of course results in litters, so this is not a good idea if you do not want to breed. The Russian Dwarf Hamster is also a very curious animal that regularly shows itself during the day. They are not really nocturnal animals, because they are also regularly awake during the day.
Did you know?
Russian Dwarf Hamsters are the only hamster species that can grow a winter coat? The hamsters can turn completely white in the winter if the conditions are right. In the wild, this is an important survival mechanism; it prevents them from being seen by predators in the snow.
Chinese Dwarf Hamster
The Chinese Dwarf Hamster is a lesser known hamster species. These animals have a slightly longer tail and can also climb slightly better than other dwarf hamster species. They are solitary animals that really need to be kept alone. In the wild, the animals only come together to mate and otherwise live alone. Chinese Dwarf Hamsters are quite active and slightly more shy than Russian Dwarf Hamsters.
Campbell's Dwarf Hamster
The Campbelli Dwarf Hamster is very similar to the Russian Dwarf Hamster. The animals can even be crossed with each other, but that should not be done because hybrid animals will then arise. The Campbelli is, in contrast to the Russian Dwarf Hamster, a hamster by nature that can live together with its own kind, but just like with the Roborovski Dwarf Hamster it is wise to obtain good advice about this from the shelter or breeder of the animals.
Syrian Hamster
The Syrian Hamster, also known as the Golden Hamster, is the largest hamster species that is kept as a pet. The largest hamster species is the Corn Wolf, but that is a real wild hamster that cannot be kept as a pet. Syrian Hamsters also need larger housing due to their larger size. Houses and toys must also be large enough for these animals. Not all manufacturers indicate this clearly enough. That is why all our products clearly indicate whether something is for a dwarf hamster or a golden hamster.
Hamsters are real nest builders
Hamsters are real nest builders, they always need nesting material so they can line their hole. Making a nest is therefore part of the natural behavior of a hamster. Therefore always give the hamster 15-25 grams of nesting material.
Are Hamsters Nocturnal?
Hamsters are generally evening, night and crepuscular animals. The Syrian Hamster (Golden Hamster) is a real nocturnal animal, these hamsters sleep during the day and are mainly active at night. However, there is a small difference between males and females. The male Golden Hamsters are namely larger sleepyheads than the female Golden Hamsters. Females are more active than the males and therefore show themselves a little more often during the day than the males.
Hamsters & Dwarf Hamsters love this!
Hamsters love their running wheel. That is a must for the hamster enclosure. In addition, hamsters like to dig and some species also like to climb. Because hamsters dig tunnels in the wild, they also like to walk through tunnels in our homes. Hamsters are active animals, so give them enough challenge in the form of hamster toys.
Hamsters & Dwarf hamsters have continuously growing teeth
Just like all rodents, hamster teeth grow continuously. It is therefore very important that the hamster gets good hamster food and also has gnawing material to wear down its teeth. We set high standards for both and that is why we do not sell lime gnawing stones or mineral stones. All products in the category "gnawing material" are 100% suitable for the hamster!
Hamsters & Dwarf Hamsters are prey animals and need to be able to hide
Hamsters and also Dwarf hamsters are prey animals, so hiding is very important to them. The animals all need (preferably multiple) houses or hiding places to feel safe. The animals do not like an open enclosure. In the wild, they are often caught by birds of prey, which is also the reason why they do not like to be picked up from above. An enclosure with multiple houses and sufficient hiding places gives the hamsters a safe feeling. This is important, because if the hamsters feel safe, they will also become tame faster and easier and they will trust their enclosure more quickly.
