General care
Housing
your hamster/hamsters should have a cage which is at least 12 inches wide by 15 inches long and 12inches high however the bigger the better. And your cage should include a wheel/wheels, water bottle, food dish. House and some tunnels. With Chinese hamsters if your are using a wire cage make sure that the bars are no more further apart than 0.7mm.
Cage mates
Chinese hamsters are social however fighting may occur if your have bought a pair of Chinese hamsters be vigilant if you see them fighting seriously and for long periods of time. and or bite marks cuts etc separate them into different cages as the fighting will only get worse.
Diet
when you purchase your hamster/hamsters you will have been provided with a bit or there current food keep them on this and when this runs out give them a hamster mix of your choice. And make sure to give your hamster/hamsters some fresh food at least one a week however introduce fresh foods slowly into there diet.
Breeding
If you have bought your hamster for breeding purposes we will only provide either a single hamster of the sex of your choice or on of both sexes from different litters and parents and they will be separated as it is cruel to breed a hamster under four months of age as they are still growing. And if you have bought a pair for non breeding purpose we can guarantee they will be the same sex so no surprise litters.
