if the males are neutered in most cases you can house them together, same litter or not..... i have housed mice and rats together...hamsters and mice...hamsters mice and rats (the hamsters were campbell)...ect...however..i have experience and know my pets behavior well enough to make a decision...with syrians...well...they never really seem nice to other animals..lol...so when i saw how the pet store guy had all his hamsters that were syrian living together like it was no big deal i was blown away...there are exceptions with every animal..and i thought...how can you possibly have that many "exceptions" to the rule living together under the same roof...i ve had syrians for 4yrs and during that time i didnt make any of my unusual and unconvential pairings using these animals...so im always into seeing the unthinkable happen
i dont like to go by the book on every little thing...i am fond, Merlin, of the fact that you were able to keep them together, its unusal but hey odd stuff does happen...i wish you had some pics...i would have loved to see the lil guys..
on the other hand, i realize that like jenna said that for the most part housing syrians together is a no- no...bc it s true...most people who had no idea about syrains would say hey lets get a bunch of them...but to someone that has had them their entire life...i think after years and years of experience in safely handling those pets by the book they can make and educated observation and make that call (just like i made the call to raise hammies, mice and rats together)
thats just my own personal opinion and i respect everyone else's beliefs
