Do hamsters and mice get along with other hamsters and mice?

I have a hamster, male, and was wondering if i introduced another hamster, would they get along; i know with cats or dogs sometimes they dont, or they have to be kept separated at first.Do hamsters and mice get along with other hamsters and mice?
Hi,





With syrian hamsters you can not keep them together, one cage one hamster is the golden rule here.





With mice, it can be different, females can live in single sexed groups and live happily. Males on the other hand will not tolerate another male near him once he is mature. You could put a female with him, but in 21 days or so, there will be a lot more of them.





Hamsters and mice don't like each other either, they will fight and cause serious injury or even death to one or both of your animals.Do hamsters and mice get along with other hamsters and mice?
Male rodents usually like to establish dominance over another, so they would probably fight. It may not be true of all cases, but for the most part the older of the two or the first one there will want to be the alpha male. If they were females they'd probably be fine.
Well seeing how mice travel in packs I would think they would get along with each other I am not sure about hamsters though.
well u should try 1 male and 1 female then try 2 males and 2 females


hope i have helped:))
if the hamster is syrain dont try! they will fight to the death!
