We have 3 week old baby dwarf hamsters that have been itching themselves often. Is this normal? Thanks!?

Question

They started itching themselves since they were able to stand, so I thought it was normal.... though I am starting to get worried that it is now.

Answer 1

there just giving there selves a bath.its 100% normal.and they do itch but hamsters bathe themselves alot

Answer 2

I have 2 week old babies that do the exact same thing. They are getting dust and irritants off of themselves.

Answer 3

Yeah, mine too. I have 3 week old campbell dwarf hamsters. They are very ithchy, too. If patches of fur are missing then you have to be worried. But i don't know if its natural.
