Roborovski Hamsters for Sale | Robo Dwarf Hamsters for Sale | Petco

- The name hamster comes from the German word "hamstern" which means "to hoard"

- Hamsters have pouches inside their cheeks allowing them to put large amounts of food in them

- Hamsters can squeeze their bodies through any opening as big as their head

- Hamster teeth grow continuously throughout their life so they should be provided with chew sticks to prevent them from becoming over-grown

- Play during the night and rest during the day (nocturnal), but can adjust to your schedule

- Easy to handle but move quickly; some species, such as Chinese dwarfs and Robos, are less likely to nip or bite

- House adult hamsters separately. Different types of small animals should not be housed together
