What should hamsters do when they are in heat?

Hamsters may bite when they are in heat because they are excited or anxious. Here are some ways to deal with it:

1. Don't punish hamsters: hamsters may bite people because they try to protect themselves or express dissatisfaction. Punishment will only aggravate their anxiety. Don't beat or punish them.

2. Avoid sudden movements: Hamsters are sensitive to sudden movements or noises, which may cause them to bite. When approaching hamsters, move slowly and gently to avoid catching them suddenly.

3. Provide an appropriate environment: Make sure that hamsters have enough space and toys to consume their energy and curiosity. Provide cages and toys of appropriate size to reduce anxiety and excitement.

4. Proper socialization and training: Establish a good relationship with hamsters and enhance mutual trust through gentle socialization and training. Slowly, hamsters will gradually adapt to your contact and reduce biting behavior.

5. Seek professional help: If the hamster's biting behavior persists or becomes serious, it is recommended to consult a veterinarian or professional hamster breeder for more specific advice and guidance.
