Question

My hamster keeps on sleeping on his back..hes not dead cause I just woke him up so is it normal ? should i go to the vet?

Answer 1

It's perfectly normal. They just feel comfortable laying on thier backs sometimes. Just like a human will move to different positions during sleep, so will animals.

Answer 2

why wouldn't it be normal it would only be a problem if he didn't wake up

Answer 3

Hmm I have 2 hamsters but don't know that it's normal but I would advise looking it up on the internet. If you find anything wrong about it I would take him to a vet. Hopefully it won't cost much to straighten it our if there is something wrong. I think one of mine has an eye infection.
