no they don't
They use their mouths to remove it from their nests but don't eat it.

My sister had a hamster called Penfold.
It was shit. My brother fed it cider. It died.

The end.

Cheers.

There should be a dedicated part of the site where people can share stories like this.
It would be a roaring success, I'm sure.

My brother's hamster kept going down the stairs in its ball.
That probably wasn't ideal for it, but given at the bottom there was usually an extremely excitable golden retriever, I reckon the hamster's heart problems may have started there.
