Campbell’s Dwarf Hamster

      Small, rounded-bodied hamsters with characteristic small ears and grayish-brown fur with a dark stripe down the back are Campbell's dwarf hamsters. Although they require socialization and may be prone to biting, they are relatively low-maintenance and loving pets. They are among the fastest hamsters, which makes it occasionally difficult to control them. Nevertheless, Campbell's dwarf hamsters are relatively simple to look after; all they need is a simple feed and routine cage cleaning.

      Dwarf Campbell's hamsters make peaceful, low-maintenance pets. They like to dig, tunnel, and explore when they are awake. Although they prefer the night, they occasionally become active during the day. The majority are amiable and don't mind being handled, especially if you begin doing it gently while they are young. But if they feel threatened, some animals may nip. Additionally, because they move so quickly and are so little, they might be difficult to control.

      Although they won't form bonds with humans the way a cat or dog would, many of these hamsters will approach the side of their enclosure if you approach them. The Campbell's dwarf hamster is social with other members of its species, unlike some other hamster species. They should preferably be introduced to one another from an early age and kept in same-sex pairs or small groups. However, keep an eye out for any signs of violence as they have a tendency to become territorial. Additionally, it is best to keep them separate from other household pets, including other hamster species, due to their small size and fragility.
