chinnes dalf hamsters

Question

Answer
Dear Sarah,
thank you for your question.
This is typical for Chinese dwarf hamsters, who are not social at all. They are usually fine together as long as they are not really mature, but when they are four to five months old, as your hamsters, they start to fight because they see each other as rivals for territory, mates ect.
You need to separate them as soon as possible, the fights will get worse very fast and may end with one or both hamsters seriously hurt or even dead. Don't try reintroducing them, it will nt work.
I hope I was of some help to you
