  1. Well, to be honest, there isn't a lot of tricks for them to learn.  It took me about a year to teach a hamster to get into a jar when I placed the jar in his cage.   He learned that by repeating the same action each week with a small treat as a reward.  


  2. You can only tame hamsters and teach them to get onto your hands but other than that, it is very difficult to train them to do a specific trick unless related to their natural behavior.

    For example, my hamster always responds to my voice. When I call out his name, he is ready to come out and put his face to the cage bars even if he was asleep at that time.

    He knows the exact time when I will put him in his hamster ball and around that time, come near the cage bars and wait patiently for me.

    He also knows that if I whistle to him, he is going to get sunflower seeds. And if I whistle and give him any other treat, he will stubbornly refuse to accept it even if it is his favourite.

    I am giving you these examples to tell you that hamsters can be trained on simple things like this that also relate to their natural behavior but to make them do a trick as per your conditions is difficult.

    You can give it a try but don't be disappointed if it does not work out.
