Exactly how fast are roborovski hamsters?

Question

I know that they are very fast, but I need to know how fast.

Answer 1

I've had 2 before and...wow...they can definitely run faster than I could.

If you go to youtube and search HAMSTER TURNS IN A WHEEL

then...you'll find a lot of results of roborovski hamsters flying in wheels.

My video is "Crazy hamster flying adventure" xD

They are fast though...

Answer 2

Well, I've never had them before but I hear they are so fast that it is dificult to handle them. So therefore, it is better just to watch them more than handle them.

Answer 3

they are really fast my friend has one the only time you can pet it is if it comes and sits in your hand when you put your hands in the cage they don't bite though but the are hard to catch if they escape out of their cage. we had some of that troubles we only caught it because we threw a small blanket on top of it.

Answer 4

Well....i don't know exactly they are but fast enough they count on speed to get away...they don't bite!:))

Answer 5

we just caught mine today.if your cathing them by hand you have to run.They are pretty fast.
