Definitely not. All rodent species need to be housed separately from one another. Syrian hamsters (ones incorrectly sold as "Teddy Bears", "Panda Bears", "Black Bears", etc.) can not be kept together, meaning they need to be housed one to each cage. Other rodents of the same species can be housed together as long as they get along. While most of the time they do, there can be a conflict of personalities and they will not live together harmoniously. If this is the case, they need to be separated.
There are five species of hamsters- Syrians, Campbells, Winter Whites, Roborovski and Chinese. Syrians must be housed separately though the dwarve can live in colonies. This does not mean that you can put a Campbells, a Winter White, a Roborovski and a Chinese all in the small cage. This means that you can keep a colony of Campbells, a colony of Winter Whites, a colony of Roborovskis and a colony of Chinese. Of course if you don't want a "population" problem, then make sure they are same sex colonies!

I would not mix them at all. I had mice back a couple years ago and also got a hamster. The hampster ended up being bullied and bitten by the mouse he lived with. He eventually died from the wounds, I had the hampster a total of 3 days.

no, you mustn't positioned categories of rodents at the same time. they have distinctive housing and foodstuff desires, and that they do no longer communicate interior a similar techniques. upload to that, confident, some dwarf hamsters would be pleased with their littermates, yet there is likewise plenty that may not in any respect be, and could might desire to be separated. pondering how this is hit or omit whether or no longer they settle for his or her very own family contributors, they are very no longer susceptible to settle for a thoroughly distinctive animal

No. They will try to kill each other and the stronger one will eat the weaker one. Hamsters don't even mix well with other hamsters.
