Hampsters??

Hey, Can anyone give me some information on hamsters? Thanks a bunch!
Answers:
They are very low maintance pets but if you get two within weeks you will have 20. They multiply very fast.
hamsters not hampsters lol.. depends what you want to no. pop down to your local pet superstore and get a book for 拢2.99 and it tells you everything! or search on google.
There are two kinds commonly found in pet stores. Syrians (also called golden, teddy bear, black bear, etc.) are larger and will usually fight as adults, so it's best to keep one per cage. Dwarf hamsters are smaller and more social, so you can usually keep two together without issue. They need a good sized cage with non-aromatic shavings. The cage should be cleaned at least every other week. They need daily feedings and fresh water. They like having toys to chew and explore. An exercise wheel lets them run in the cage. Ones with a solid track are best since the hamster's feet can't slip through. They need to be handled regularly to stay tame.
ok if you just got them you have to leave them alone for 1 to 2 dasys so they can get use to there new surroundings and they will sometimes not bite but a little nip itsd beacuse thats how they check out there surroundings belive me i have 3 i know alot about them
syrians are friendlier, easy to handle, only one per cage, live 2-4 years need exercise in the plastic balls u buy at petsmart, use aspen or super shavins for bedding, no dust, low oils feed fresh friut and veggies in addition to hamster food, all available at petsmart and handbooks too.
