I'm not sure about syrian hamsters, but I do know that many dwarf hamsters are cranky and just want to be left alone. I had two dwarf hamsters before and they constantly batted and bit at my hands when i put them in the cage to try and pick them up.

Oh yeah, just so you know, they are both the same size and they are both dwarf hamsters. But there is a difference between Syrian and Russian dwarf hamsters. Russian Dwarf Hamsters are more frightened of people than the Syrian, so they are more aggresive. RD hamsters have to be handled a lot more, so they can get used to their owner picking them up. But just scoop them from the cage, so it doesnt hurt the hamster. Hey, if you get a RDH, you can learn more about them at my site. Look below!

syrian hamsters are larger and much easier to handle.
Dwarf hamsters are a lot smaller and faster.

I had a dwarf one and he bit the **** out of me. His name was Edgar Wilbur. So cute, but psycho.

Because they are really agents of hezbollah establishing sleeper cells. Watch out.
