they'll be okay for now. But hamsters are territorial and like to live alone. When they turn into adults they'll start fighting. I've never been able to keep 2 hamsters together, even 2 that were litter mates. I suggest having another cage ready, and when you see signs that theyre starting to fight, seperate them. Either that or your hamsters will beat the crap out of each other, possibly even killing each other.

if they were brought up together , it should be ok! but if there is the least bit of chaos, i suggest moving them. my friends hamster bit off its other hamsters tail! even though they were on the same cage every day! who knows what hamsters can do after life long loyalty to a friend?

As long as they're the same gender :P Male hamsters will fight each other, but since they grew up together they probably won't kill each other, but you might want to keep an eye on them at first?

If they were brought up together, then they must be fine. That is assuming that they grew up in the same cage. If they have not killed each other yet, then it probably won't happen.
They still may fight. Just like anything that co-habitates.

Hamsters are solitary animals. They can live together until a certain age and then they will fight, likely to the death.
It's always better to be safe than sorry so I would suggest separating them now.

you should take it out, especially if they are getting older. i had hamsters that were brought up together and i came home on day, and one of them died from a fight. it turns out that his skin ripped apart and the organs came out and bled to death. there was blood everywhere.....ever since then i separated all my hamsters.

They should be fine, except for maybe a few fights here and there, but nothing too serious. If it does get serious you should split them, but seeing as they were raised together they should be just fine.

As long as theyre not the same sex. I had a female and male together and the female would always kill the males. =(
