I'd definitely get another cage if I were you. What kinda hamsters are they? Syrian? Dwarf hamsters?

[Danegirl2208]

yes, you should really get another cage..i had 2 teddy bear hamsters a while back, male and female, i couldnt leave them together for a second

They are short haired; tan colored teddy bear hamsters. So yes they are known to fight and I knew this when I got them but I'm wanting to make some money selling baby hamsters when the female gives birth. I'm not sure if the female is pregnant yet but I'm about 60 % chance sure my female hamster is pregnant, because right when I put the female in with the male he was already sniffing and chasing her around.

Teddy bear hamsters are syrian hamsters. Syrians are known for being solitary creatures. They like to be alone. If they're fighting you need to separate them and only put them together when the female is in heat if you want babies. When the female is in heat they will most likely not fight.

do you know how i can tell if the female hamster is in heat? i sure don't...

I have been having my male hamster almost a year now and i just baught the female this week and earlier today i was watching them play in their wheel and they suddenly started to jump on top each other and fight, i simply would of thought they were just playing around if they wasn't both squeeling badly like they was in pain which i'm sure they was in pain from hurting each other. But other then this issue today they have been like perfect mates.
