Having clean hands will keep your dwarf hamster from biting you when you pick him up. If your hands smell like food, then he will essentially see your hand as food and bite it to try to get a taste. Wash your hands with  unscented  soap before handling your dwarf hamster. Creating a scoop with your hands will keep your dwarf hamster supported as you lift him up. In addition, by placing your hands underneath your dwarf hamster, he will probably walk onto them.  Do not reach down into your dwarf hamster’s cage to pick him up. Your hand will remind him of a large bird of prey swooping down to snatch him up — he will be terrified by this.  Use slow and gentle movements when putting your hands in his cage. Always speak to your dwarf hamster  before  putting your hands in his cage. Your voice will help keep him calm as you go to pick him up.  Do not chase your dwarf hamster around his cage to get him to step onto your hands. Let him come to you instead of the other way around. There are important differences between your dwarf hamster’s nibbling and biting when you pick him up. His nibbles are friendly and are his way of exploring your hand. Nibbles generally do not hurt.  Bites are usually not friendly. They are your dwarf hamster’s way of telling you that he is stressed, scared, or just upset that you haven’t handled him enough. Hamster bites are usually faster than a nibble and are accompanied by a sound of distress, like a squeak. Bites can be painful. Whether your dwarf hamster bites or nibbles, do not jerk your hand away. This could frighten him and make him wary of you. Gently blowing in his face and saying a firm "no" should stop the biting behavior. Russian dwarf hamsters have short memories, so your dwarf hamster may not remember that you just held him the day before. Handle him each day so that he will not become distressed or upset with not being held enough.  Dwarf hamsters enjoy being handled.  Do not let your dwarf hamster fall out of your hands when you hold him. Prevent this by supporting his body and keeping him close to you when you lift him out of his cage.
