Answers:

Yes, Roborovski hamsters can live together as they are very social. If you do not want babies, be sure to get a same sex pair as to avoid breeding. Get hamsters from the same litter to minimize fighting.

Roborovskis can easily squeeze through the bars of a standard hamster cage, so the gaps of the bars should be approximately 7mm in width. It is advised to enquire one of the pet shop's staff about the suitability of the cages.

I'm not too sure about the size of the cage but I would reccomend getting the biggest size possible.

It's best to get wheels that are attatched to the wall. Ones on the ground are unstable and could fall on the hamster, causing the hamster to become injured.

Roborovski babies are around 1-2 cm in size. They can grow to a maximum size of 4-5 cm.

I hope this answers most of your questions!
