The History Of Hamsters
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 13 มิ.ย. 2024
- Have you ever wondered what your hamster's background history was? Or where do their species come from? Many may think all hamsters originate from the same place or that all hamsters live in a desert when this isn't true!
I do apologize if any words are mispronounced! Many I had never used before and right before filming had to google how to pronounce (like Phodopus and Aharoni), I also realize I messed up "Aleppo" for some reason my brain always switches the L with the P when I think of it 😅 And apparently the Netherland flag got flipped during editing as well- fun times 😃

If you were still in school doing a presentation, you would be really really good at it!! It's very easy to understand and I definitely learned some facts about hamsters! Thank you!
That’s because she does more than 1 take, it’s not always perfect :)
Yeah this exact video was redone 3 times over two days 😅
@@VictoriaRaechel Hi Victoria I have a question your probably rlly busy I’m just being rlly annoying lol but I’m planning on getting a hamster and the only room I have is on my desk where do my zoom class and ofc I don’t want my hamster to get stressed or anything by the noise so my question is, would that be okay for the hamster?
@@AlieTheUnicorn preferably no. An appropriate enclosure takes up a lot of room from a table. They also are nocturnal and would probably not appreciate the noise you make throughout the day
@EMILY KEN YU HAN Moe that is true thanks
Clicked faster than Waddles could waddle around 💀
Awwww cute 🐹🐹
damn that's speedy
@@alyssasanimals4214 😂
That’s pretty fast.
Wow that is fast!
i love victoria with all my heart, she is so humble despite being one of the best hamster you tubers.
She is also is so interesting with her videos, always has new ideas and on top of that gets adorable and great footage.
I ❤️
Thank you for the sweet comment ❤️
I love how her videos are timeless, like some people vlogs aren’t interesting after a day but I watch her videos from like 2012 and they are helpful 😂
I love her vids bc, she is teaching like a teacher and she is THE QUENN of HAMSTERS.She teach me like a teacher so thats why I sub to her
HOW DO YOU GET THOSE SYMBOLS THEIR SO CUTE

It’s lovely that you care so much about animals! I wish more people were like you and cared so much about animals, this is an amazing topic to talk about and it was very interesting once you explained it. ❤️
Thank you!
I just got an Ikea Detolf for my hammy and I am SO EXCITED!!! It’s going to have a natural theme 😆 I am so glad I have your channel to help me out!!
That's really exciting!!
Good luck taking care of ur ham😄
Omg sooo exciting!!!😆😁😁❤️
It’s so cool to see hamsters in there natural environment kinda makes you remember that pink bedding and rainbows aren’t the only route to go.
Let's just appreciate that victoria teaches us more and gives us proper care information to have a happy hamster!
I’d rather spend 3 hours researching each individual species of hamster then take 5 minutes to write a paragraph in social studies.
yes.
@@VictoriaRaechel No
To be honest...Watching some history videos are pretty much a snooze fest but your video is both educational and entertaining! Thank you
Thank you for watching!
This one of the only fun history lessons 😂
Yall 69 likes like damnnn thats a lot thanks 🍉

I chose Hamsters as my topic for my Research Study back in 6th grade. Everything you said in this video brought back memories of me spending countless hours digging up the Internet and Local libraries doing research of everything about them😂
Such a fun topic!
That's awesome, I once had to write a paper for a journalism class on a subject that we need to take action on, and I wrote about why hamsters need large cages. I used a study that Victoria linked in one of her videos!
I never knew that Syrians had sent glands on their sides! I always wondered what they were! Each of your videos I always learn something new!!❤️
You've been getting better and better! What an amazing video! Wish you so much success! You are such an inspiration! ♡
Thank you so much!!
Victoria I just wish that you should be noticed by people from all over the world because you work so hard to help hamsters who are to live in bad conditions. Wishing to to get 100M soon. 😌
Thank you!
This is such a great and informative video, and I can tell you spent LOADS of time editing and researching! I really love these more unknown facts about hamsters. I learned so much new stuff. I love these informative vids like this.
Thank you! It's definitely a video that took me the most time to put all together!
This vid is awesome. It proves the basis for proper care and is an answer to basically all of the hamster arguments that come up:
Why hamsters need large cages
Why they are solitary
Why they need to burrow
Why they need to be enriched
It also sheds light on the bad breeding situation coming from pets in petstores bred by rodent mills.
And it clears up the differences and classifications of each domesticated specie!
Dude, I need to show this to everyone who is thinking of getting one or who already has a hamster.
You even put links in the description for sources!!
It's like a reaaallllly well put together research project!
Well done!! 👏👏👏👏👏
😃
I want to thank you Victoria, i am 12 and i got my Russian dwarf hamster during lockdown. At the time she had a 340 square inch enclosure, 4 inches of bedding, a 5 inch wheel and 3 accessories. I have had her for almost 2 years now and she now has an 800 square inch enclosure, 11 inches of bedding, a 11 inch wheel, herbs and a more varied food mix, cork log, sand bath and all the necessary enrichments a hamster needs. Thank you for teaching me and making my hamsters life- although small- much happier.
Also feed them with insects,dwarf hamsters need insects because they are omnivores while Syrian are more herbivores although they can also eat insects and digest them
This was such an interesting topic! Loved watching this! Hope that Dipper, Mabel and Waddles are doing great and the 2 new arrivals to our family have settled down xx
I wish and hope that too!
Thank you!
@@tanishcaa1529 💛🥰
@@VictoriaRaechel it’s ok! I wish well to all of your animals! You inspire me so much to do my own research! 💛💛
Super excited to watch! I wake up early every Saturday to watch your videos, I just want to say that you have made my hamster have a better life! Thank you for the great informative video(s)!
Thank you so much! wow, I feel like I just watched an hour long documentary about hamster!
Waddles is so cute😍 You have so many cool facts and your channel has saved so many hamsters and their owners. I think everyone who watched this learned at least something! Thank you😀
Haha thank you for watching!!
You're super good at presenting and speaking, I wish to be as good as you one day!
Great informative video Victoria! :D
Thank you haha it's mainly only on camera, I could never in person 😅
I can always learn new things, which is why I love your channel, Victoria! Thanks for the lots of useful information!
I’m honestly happy to hear that!
Frist
@@VictoriaRaechel love your video
@@hunterleffel6920 wut?
True!
Thank you for creating your channel! You're channel inspired me to have a hamster as a class pet to teach kids good manners and appropriate pet care! They all love checking for him every morning to see what he were he's burrowed. You've also helped make my syrian's life a 1000x better, THANK YOU
Your videos are always helpful, I love u Victoria so much! My favorite youtuber
Thank you for making helpful videos! My hamster is now happy in her new big cage! I love your channel! And of course your pets!! 💗
That's really awesome to hear!
Hi Victoria! Love you videos!!! Could you possibly do a video on signs of an ageing hamster and what to do to adapt to them ageing
thankyou so much fo your vids Victoria! I was out for a break, and I saw this, and clicked as fast as the speed of light! :) literally the only history vid I'll stop for :)
Aw haha thank you for watching!
just got my first hamster and binge watching all of your videos. You taught me a lot about how to care for him. For example i made the mistake of choosing a small enclosure but on the first day of owing him i immediately upgraded to a proper sized bin cage.
Thank you so much for your great content! You really do a great deed to all the hamsters out there
This taught me so much, I can learn more in 12 minutes from your videos than a hour long class in school. This was so interesting! Love you!
Haha thank you!
I currently have 3 Syrians, and planning to get a Russian or a Robo in the future. I have long awaited a video on the history of these hamsters, and thank you so much for making this video.
I didn't learn exactly anything new but I just enjoy listening to u talking about hamsters :) Very good video overall!
Ever since I think you had like 200k subscribers so about three years or so I’ve been watching you (not on the same account) but I love your channel and how teach people proper animal care to help them have a better life! Thank u 💖
This makes history fun 🙃
This is so well put together! Thank you so much for educating your audience more and more every uploads =D
Thank you for the support!
Wow! You've obviously put a lot of time & research into this enjoyable & easy to understand video. it was VERY well done. In my opinion, you're the best hamster authority on TH-cam. Thanks for uploading.
Thank you for the very kind comment! ❤️
I love videos like this so so much thank you so much Rachel! Keep up the amazing work!! We love u
Thank you for this! ❤️
❤💝💖💞💕💓🙀😽💋
Can’t wait to watch this one!
I'm a history nerd, so I really enjoyed this video! Thanks for all the cool facts and information!!🐹😀
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thx 4 always spreading awareness on hamsters! Keep being amazing! ❤ 🐹
I love hamsters! Everyone should take good care of their pets🐹
I have a Russian dwarf and a Syrian
My hamster seems to be losing hair around his scent glands. He is about 18 months old. Is this normal? Great video btw!
I would get him checked by the vet 😊 sometimes dwarf scent glands can become impacted, not sure if the hair loss is related but worth it to check out!
i read in google it said because old age
I love you’re channel I’m getting a hamster very soon thanks for uploading and helping me know what I need for my hamster !
Awesome and very interesting video! Thank you for all the information 😁
I really enjoyed this video, Tori! I learned a lot about the history of hamsters. I especially found it interesting that hamsters were first found in pet shops in England before coming to the US.
I want to say that my hamsters have the best life because of you!😊💙
thank you! i had no idea that you needed to add tunnels to encourage burrowing for dwarf hamsters, will be adding that to my enclosure this week, super helpful and loved learning about the history!
I think you did an excellent job of educating people about the different kinds of hamsters. I look forward to getting on e in the future. I hope your hamsters are keeping well.
Thank you!
Im not rlly a fan of history but this is so intresting!!
I feel like in 20 years when I have kids they are going to be like mom I want a hamster and then by then the Europeans might be domesticated and I’ll be like OMG YALL HAVE TO GET THIS ONE WHEN I WAS YOUR AGE I WOULD HAVE FREAKED.
You‘d need a really big cage for them - those in our area can grow to about 30 cm
you explain more and a lot better than my history teacher
Hi victoria!! im a BIG fan :) YOU inspired me for my hamster care and taught me all my Hamster Knowledge, I just wanted to say Thank you love your channel!! i told all my friends that have hamsters to check out your channel
Thank you for the support!
This is great, I haven't seen any other hamster-centered youtuber do something like this.
Thank you!
Wow, I definitely learned something! Thank you for this video!
I'm so glad!
this video is so beautifully edited and so interesting!! you never fail to make an amazing video tori
Thank you so much!
@@VictoriaRaechel ofc, i hope mabel, dipper and waddles are doing ok and all your other lovely pets❤️
I love your videos they just make me so happy and you are making such a difference on many hamsters life❤️
This was super interesting to watch! I did something similar taking a look at wild mongolian gerbils, it's really fascinating seeing some of the similarities and differences between the different hamster species and mongolian gerbils, also great just to see some discussion about wild hamsters! I love learning about our pets' origins, it can provide a lot of really valuable information about improving their care and making them feel more at home 🙂
Thank you for watching!! 🥰
Honestly if my history teacher asked me too do the history of the pet you have/ your favorite animal I wouldn’t complain and my assignment would be done in 2 days🙌
Such an awesome and informative video! Love it; wish I could Subscribe and like multiple times!
Thank you for the support Laura!
Omg congrats on 511k!!! 🎉
Thank you!
Over the years, I've been observing my robos. I was told that they can be colonized but I always end up separating them because they always get territorial. So, my observation was right. They are just like Syrian hamsters. :( I have to get ready for another bin cage since I tried to colonize 2 robos and they are fighting, again. :(
Had Syrian Hamsters when I was younger, amazing little legends, helped me open my eyes to so many arbitrary prejudice against Rodents. Great video lass.🌱🐹☘
Early as always 🌺 love your videos ♥️
This is such a good video thank you so much Victoria!!✨✨
POV: You're coming from Exoghosts post.
hi!
Awww, I'd love a hamster with furry paws. So cute. Also it's interesting that over here in the UK, we've introduced domestic hamsters to other places in the world. :-)
Amazing video as always! Thank you for educating people on hamsters 🐹 🥰 They’re my favorite pet but unfortunately usually the one who gets the worst care. You’re amazing Victoria!
Thank you for the support!!
It absolutely amazes me how one thing gets from point A to point B. Your editing is also amazing! This was such a well thought out, nicely paced video essay with great visuals that didn't distract 👏 😊 Hope this comment finds you well, Victoria, and p.s. Dipper and Pine are such cuties they look like actual little teddy bears! 🧸
Thank you Hannah!
I'm a homeless schooler, so this is perfect for my history and science!!! 😂🤣😀😁
Home schooler* 😂😶😆
Who got excited when their hamster species popped up?
I love this video!!! I was waiting for a video like this 💛
Thank you for watching!
Wow this editing must have taken forever! Great video ❤️
9 hours of editing non-stop basically 😅 Thank you!
I know the first russian dwarf I had was purebred. However, I just got my new girl today. Pepper is beautiful and she looks like a campbell but not totally.
She is more rounded as more of a cute short button nose than that of a mouse. She has a thick line on her back and a lot of her physical features more so resemble winter white
the fact that I've done the comparisons I have no idea , coupled with the fact I got her from PETCO probably means she very well might be a hybrid
If they’re from PetCo they definitely are a hybrid.
Super interesting video that I have been waiting for and super cool to be on my birthday. Keep up the good work.
Happy birthday!!!! 🥳🥳🥳
Thank you

A fantastic and very informative video on Hamsters and their history. I really enjoyed learning about all the species of hamsters 🐹 🥰 I have only ever owned Syrian hamsters but would love to give a home to other species of hamsters 😍🐹
Great video and very informative! x
Thanks so much!
I am obsessed with you since 3 months
Tq so much for teaching us about hamsters

It means a lot
An extremely entertaining and informative video :3
Thanks for watching!
I am so grateful to have found your channel. My 11 yr old daughter loves your channnel. Greetings from Toronto..
Tell her I say hello and thank you for watching!! ❤️
@@VictoriaRaechel Hi Victoria. I will tell her she will be grateful u messaged us .. Have amazing day 😊😊😊
Your videos are really helpful :)
Glad to hear!
@@VictoriaRaechel I didn't thought you would answer! 😱 omg
Yesterday my hamster died. He was 1 year old and a half. I always watch your videos and that helped me a lot to take proper care of my hamster. I’m very sad that my hammy passed away but I hope I gave him a good life. ❤️
Awww im so sorry for your loss😢
@@zerenugur Ty 🍀
your videos are amazing ,thanks for the info !! :D .
Thank you for watching Evan!
Hi! Your channel is a brilliant resource for those of us who are first-timers (and more experienced peeps, I'm sure). Is there anything you'd recommend to cover wire bars with in order to fill the bedding higher? I bought the Savic hamster plaza in preparation for getting a hamster next week but didn't realise how much bedding was needed for them to burrow
Thanks! You can try using cardboard, plexiglass or coroplast to make a taller base :)
I love this! What a fascinating video!
I've owned Syrians, Campbell's, winter whites, and hybrids. I can't stress the importance of keeping them alone. I tried to house a pair of hybrids and they fought as soon as I brought them home. That led to separation of the two. they also had extreme neurological issues and health issues. I purchased them from a pet store and their genes were dirtier than my grandmas mind. Also Victoria, thanks for all these videos. I've been a sub since I was 9 and you helped me give my hamsters a good life. you also helped me inspire others to change their care. it's a domino effect. Thanks you!
This was really helpful! Thanks!
its so nice to learn about the history of these tiny creatures!!
Thanks for this video! Much needed more info about hamster! I don’t see much here on TH-cam.
Thank you for watching! I thought it was something that hadn't really been done yet on TH-cam!
Great video. Very interesting and informative
Thank you!
Good information! I didn’t know all that about the winter whites!😁
I did not know about this but now I know what to add to my Syrianhamster cages
