male and female hamsters

Question
i would like to know how to i know that the hamster is a male or female....

Answer
Hi Jaslyn,

If a hamster is female, you will see nipples.  Also, the gap between her urinary and anal openings will be smaller than that of a male.  And, if a hamster is male, you will be able to clearly see testicles.  Here's a link to illustrations to show you:
