Robo Dwarf Hamster Care Guide
A dwarf robber hamster, short for roborovski, is one of the largest pets you could add to your family. They tend to be one of the smallest in size in the hamster family and usually live to be three years old. If properly cared for, a robot dwarf hamster will live a long and happy life. In this article, I’m going to explain some of the necessary information that you need to know to give your hamster a great life.
Where should I keep my dwarf robbery hamster? While there really is no wrong or right place to house your new hamster, there are a couple of suggestions I’ll provide based on research from scientists around the world. Robot dwarf hamsters like to live in environments that are above the ground. Because they are so small, they must take advantage of the height to observe their surroundings. When it comes to your actual tank or house, here are a couple of suggestions. You’ll want to make sure your theft is kept at an ideal room temperature and should remain constant. These hamsters like a room temperature of 75-80 F. They also like plenty of room to roam. So my suggestion is a large aquarium with a warm light or an oversized hamster cage. These houses can be found at any local pet store, and a good suggestion would be to check your local Walmart, as you can probably find a very affordable option.
What kind of food does my dwarf robber hamster like to eat? Interestingly, dwarf robber hamsters are one of the only hamsters that are fully vegetarian. Although they can eat meat, it is highly recommended that you only feed your hamster muesli. Muesli is a food mix that is made up of nuts, grains, and dried fruit. Most local pet stores have and sell muesli, and the different varieties don’t matter at all, as your hamster will love any selection. Some of the foods you will want to avoid; chocolate, sweets, garlic, onions, grape seeds, pickles, potatoes and pork products.
What kinds of health problems will my robotic dwarf hamster experience? Well the short and simple answer; not many. Most experts suggest that you pair your dwarf robber hamster with another hamster for company. However, be careful not to add more than one as they can be a bit aggressive if paired with more than one brother or sister and have been known to fight and bite. Also, depending on its cleaning habits, your hamster can pick up mites. Although this is not common, it is a very easy disease to treat with a chemical found in any local pet store.
As you can see, a dwarf robber hamster is very easy to care for and offers a lot of love to its family. If properly treated, this pet can and will be a great addition to your family.
