So I’m hoping to get a hamster and I’m pumped because I’ve never had that generic experience with hamsters when I was a kid. But, the only place I could keep him is in my room where my 1 1/2 year old Beardie Dante’s cage also is. I have a fairly large room and the hamster cage would be in a place where Dante couldn’t see it. I can’t move Dante’s cage because the only other place is in the same room with my other beardie (we tried to have them in the same room at first but Dante got REAL pissy). I’d obviously clean its cage regularly, but would Dante be agitated if he smelled the hamster? Would he be a little spooked at first but then get used to it? Or would he be totally fine? Would it be ok if they’re in the same room where Dante can’t see it?
My beardie has no problems with any of my other pets. My cat regularly ogles him answering he doesn’t care. He is also in my room in a position he is able to see my leopard gecko and he doesn’t mind a bit (unless he sees me feeding my Leo lol)
