How Do You Train A Hamster Not To Bite?
• Let your hamster get used to its new surroundings. • When you move your hand in its cage with your scent it will learn your scent. • Before holding your hamster wash your hands for there may be scents of food on your hand and it will try to get it off. At that time, they will bite you a lot, because they want to eat the food. • On times you do hold your hamster and they don’t bite, give it a treat. Most hamsters need love and attention. They naturally bite to defend themselves since they are a prey animal. After it trusts you, biting will become a rarity though.
