I have a little chinese male, alone and a bit sad now :( as his brother died about a month ago. They are roughly 2 years old.
But they never once fought or even scuffled,they were always curled up happily together.
I am completly smitten with chinese hamsters because of those 2 boys ^_^
Their natures are so gentle and placid, very shy and retiring around new people but lovely and snuggly when they are settled, slinking along.
I have never been bitten or nibbled, outside or inside their cage (ahem. my hand in the cage. not all of me >_<) being met only with inquisitiveness.
Since Slinkys brother died, he put on a little weight and became less sociable but he seems to be regaining his 'normal' character and weight now.
I have pondered if another chinese boy could be introduced to him as company but because of the conflicting information regarding if they can be kept in social groups or not i am torn :/
