Default Re: James and his new best friend having a night snack

I agree with both cypher and serendipity!
Introducing two unfamiliar hamsters together can be really risky, stressful and risky for both the hamsters involved and it should only be done by someone who is experienced. I personally don't recommend keeping hamsters in pairs - as from my experienced they live very happily alone (as they don't need friends) and fight can break out very unexpectedly.
Like cypher says are you planning on breeding both your hamsters? As there are lots of risks involved with doing so and shouldn't be a decision made lightly.
I would advise that you house them individually and not introduce them together again - as your female may become pregnant!
