This chapter, we'll go through how you can determine the sex of the hamster yourself. Even though, you may trust the shop owner or your friend to do it for you, you may need to know because one day you might want to mate the hamsters.
Hamsters' sex can be more easily distinguished when they are older. You need to have some experience in judging younger ones (less than a month old).
Male Hamsters
They have a scrotum bag which gets more visible when it erects. The scrotum bag may not be as easily identified when the hamster is young.
Look out for the distance between the urinary tract and the anus. The distance is longer relatively than that of the females.
Female Hamsters
For female hamsters, there is absence of scrotum bag and the distance between the anus and urinary tract is smaller.
