Help!
I have two syberian hamsters (both males) in one cage. They are together for a month and they were behaving great with each other... But since a few days ago I noticed that one hamster has begun chewing the other one's ears and living him with badly woonded ears! It makes the other hamster hurt so bad that he squeaks!! What can I do and why is it happening?

You need to separate them IMMEDIATELY before the dominant one kills the other one.

I don't know what happened to start all of it, but for safety's sake, please separate them.

Good luck.
Will do, the problem is that I don't have another cage. I'll buy one ASAP. The thing is, it's not like that all the time... It's like that mostly in the evening... It's really strange.
