Is this breed of hamster rare?

Question

I have a black russian dwarf hamster and someone said that they are really rare so im not sure if its true please answer

Answer 1

They are not rare at all... Hamters are extremely popular in pet stores. And anytime there is a demand for an animal, people go crazy breeding them to make money. Even if at one time it was unusual to see, it definately is not now.

And there are only 4 species of dwarf hamster. What kind of dwarf are you taking about? Some are usualyl black, while in others it isn't as common.
