How can you tell the difference between a teddy bear hamster syrian hamster and russian dwarf hamsters?

[Edit]

Answer

Syrian hamsters are larger and grow up to 18cm-20cm. Dwarf hamsters are much smaller and grow up to 10/12cm. The Russian dwarfs have a dark stripe down their back.



And, Russians also live in packs unlike the Syrian teddy bear hamsters that only live solitary because they are territorial. Teddy(s) are also a lot more docile in my opinion, and are not as quick as Russians. Some Russian dwarfs come in other colors as well, like white.
