Hamsters sharing a playpen?
I have 1 russian dwarf and I've gotten a new syrian.
I have a large clear plastic bin (100cm x 40cm) that I use for a playpen for the russian.
But as I'm starting to tame this new syrian, she will be needing a playpen.
The pen has cardboard on the bottom and just been on plastic normally scars a hammy, then I move her toys into the pen and a few other bit to play with.
If I pick up all the hammy poo's, dab up wee's and turn the cardboard over for each hammy.
They are different species.

Re: Hamsters sharing a playpen?
My hamsters share (one at a time) a playbox and playbox enrichment items, and they are several different species I've not had any problems with this. I do have strict quarantine though so new hamsters or unwell ones are kept away from shared hamster areas and things.

Re: Hamsters sharing a playpen?
My hamsters have shared playboxes too and like Vectis, some are different species and genders and I've never had an issue with this. I don't allow hamsters in quarantine or hamsters with illnesses to use these playboxes either.

Re: Hamsters sharing a playpen?
Thank you for sharing, both seem comfortable after trying them sharing, different times.
I've only had sibling sharing before which was fine.
