I am getting a hamster and was wondering if they could be in the same room or would that stress them out too much? The will not be in the same cage.

I keep my hamster in a room with my piggies the only problem I think you would have would be the noise factor. Since guinea pigs week it may wake up your new hammy and put a lot of stress on them. I may be able to help you if you tell me what type of cage you are using. Maybe together we can think of something for the first couple of weeks.
I wanted to know so maybe we could come to a conclusion on where to put the hammy cage. If it's som like a retold then you are just going to have to keep it where it is.
If your sister doesn't mind that would be a good idea. Also sorry for being nosy but I just want to know what type of cage for your hammy. Please don't buy a Petstore cage and make one.
That is a good size cage. I have a cheaper idea. What about bin cages I have two stacked together with a tube connecting it is beautiful and doesn't get chewed on. Plus your new ham and your wallet will be happy. My cage is 1050(I think it's in the 1000 range) sq inces and it only cost me twenty five bucks. A twenty gallon costs about 30 and some bins are even cheaper just remember the minimum is 66 quarts.i think that cage is too big for me. I might just get a 20 or 30 gallon tank.
i have seen that cage before!

The minimum for a glass tank is 30/40 gallon tank
Since my cage is bigger I don't have to clean it every two weeks once a month is good if you have an adequate cage. I will post a picture of mine. I had a tank before stuff always got caught in the silicon and my hammy was biting it. If you have any questions on Hh(Hamster Hideout) my user is Hammylover65love I would love to helpOn hamster hideout they say a 20 gallon is minimum. I will get a long one if I do.
