Default Re: Two hammies in divided Detolf

Until the day a reliable study conclusively proves that all hamsters suffer under a certain size cage (which will never happen because all hamsters are different), all "minimums" are only going to be "made up" numbers, based on opinion and experience. That doesn't mean they should be disregarded, but it does mean they should be flexible.

I also think that half a detolf is fine for most dwarves. The divider would have to be very secure of course. Personally I would not keep either Winter Whites or Campbell hamsters together unless they were from a breeder, and from a line with a history of living peacefully in groups.
