Types of Hamsters
January 21st 2011 00:39
Most people think of the cute, teddy bear hamster when they think of pet hamsters, but that isn't the only species of hamsters that is available as pets. Whether you go to a pet store (which isn't ideal when actually buying pets, only for supplies) or you find a breeder, you'll find out that there are more species than you may have realized.
* Syrian hamster, which is your common teddy bear hamster
* Roborovski hamster, a medium sized hamster, so to speak
* Campbell's hamster, which is one of the dwarf species
* Winter White hamster, which is another dwarf species
* Chinese hamster, a third dwarf hamster
* European hamster, which isn't a common pet hamster species
Each different hamster has it's own temperament traits.

Chinese hamsters, whilst being a dwarf species are not related to the other three dwarf hamsters.
I hope this helps.
