Robo dwarf hamster question?

Question

i already have a female robo dwarf hamster. she is lonely. what will happen if i place a male or female robo in the same cage with her? will being from a different litter make any difference? what is the worst that could happen? plz answer asap because someone has a few robos for sale and i would like to get one today maybe two. thanks so much in advance! :)

Answer 1

NO DON'T GET ANOTHER ROBO, She could eat er compainion or they will eat her. SHE IS NOT LONELY IF YOU GIVE HER ATTENSION.

Answer 2

how old is the robo? The younger the better. I have two Robos from different litters(long story)

They do get along pretty well but they were only 7 weeks old and the same age. There are some squables over food, but if you just put extra food in the cage that usually stops it. IIf you decide to get more Robos just be aware there is a chance that you will need to seperate the new one(s) from the old one. I would suggest getting two more then in case you have to seperate then atleast the new ones won't be as lonely. Give them time and if they do fight calm down. See if either is actually hurt or if they weren't really fighting. If they were see if you can find out why. Space, food, and wheel time are often the cause.  Space= expand the cage by using a tube to connect two cages.

Food= add more food

Wheel time= put another wheel in the cage.

If this doesn't solve it you may need to seperate them, but this isn't common(again depedntding on age)

Good luck

Hope this helps

Be careful, watch them and be prepared to have a second cage ready....I had 2 from the same litter, and one killed the other...very sad for my 5 year old daughter!
