As you all know I currently have a very cage aggressive male russian campbells. I know he will never be able to have a cage mate.
But it has started me thinking are there some dwarfs that do better with being housed together than others? If I ever try ( which I am very interested in doing someday) They would have a multi cage set up which I know can complicate things. It would consist of 5 cages 4 wheels 2 food bowls 4 hideaways and lots of dwarf size toys and such basically all the supplies I have in one large set up. I wont be doing this until ANY time soon. Just given the situation what species would do best? I am considering WW, RC, and robos

Robos seem less likely to fight IMO but it can still happen.

Why not consider a more social rodent? A group of female mice or some gerbils, maybe?

I have a separate cage planned for mice its just I have LOTS of hamster supplies and would love to have the experience with a pair of hamsters I have mentioned several other times on this forum that I do have cage plans for mice. I just need fleece and all my supplies can easily be split

I love having pairs! Especially littermate females.. Not sure on the differences in temperament between the breeds though.. the winter whites I have been getting have really sweet temperament, but that could just be that family or whatever.
I would not recommend putting two non-littermates together.

 

[Elliriyanna]

Non litter mates can be done if raised together. I have lots of hamster experience just not pairs.

It just wouldnt work really, not even sisters can live together!

 

[Elliriyanna]

Not true at all but ok. Anyway decided on that cage for another use down the road

I've noticed that you really don't accept anyone's advice on here but you're own. I'm done trying.

 

[Elliriyanna]

No I was simply stated that that wasnt true I follow many peoples advice on here.

Sibling hamsters in the right circumstances with the right personalities would work. One sentence saying no it wont work is hardly an answer.

when I said the non litter mates I meant if they are raised from little babies together. Siblings by far works the best though. I'd never try non siblings though

 

[jeff jey]

That sentence sounded like an answer

 

[Elliriyanna]

I meant species of hamsters
