Question
when a winter white dwarf hamster chenges into his winter coat, do they change back after the winter, if not can you prevent them changing


Answer
Hi,
thank you for your question.
The hamster will change back during spring and there is no way to prevent this. Many Winter White dwarf hamsters don't change at all and some get a slightly whiter fur, only a few will change to pure white.
I hope I was of some help
