Roborovski Hamster

Roborovski dwarf hamsters are smaller and quicker than both Russian and Chinese dwarf hamsters.

They can be hard to handle until they are used to you due to their speed, but have a good temperament.

Roborovskis are usually happy living in same sex pairs or groups and can be very amusing to watch as they race around their cage!

Dwarf hamsters should be fed a hamster specific mix and can be supplemented with fruit and vegetables to offer variety to your hamsters' diet.

You should provide plenty of toys for your hamsters to play with, this will help to keep them happy and healthy.

Roborovski dwarf hamsters on average live for 2 years.
