Hamsters should remain dry at all times, they are very prone to upper respiratory infections and the shock of bathing and if the animal stays damp, can all prove very dangerous to him. Give him some fine sand to roll around in so he can have a dust bath instead of a regular bath.

no, dont do it, hamsters bathe themselves, and getting them wet can bring on a chill real fast, and hamsters get colds very easily, especially dwarf hamsters

No. They will drown. I heard that gerbils and hamsters love sand baths, since they are from the desert.

they're desert hamsters... highly doubt they'd take to water willingly ;-) Plus they're so small they could develop a pretty bad chill from it pretty quickly.
