: Do sg's hibernate? What is their temperature
There are pages that say they do in the wild, but it would have to be pretty cold. I have heard about hamsters that have been assumed dead, only to revive when warmed. Many sources suggest that they should be kept between 75-85 degrees F.
these are the websites I mentioned above;
