What breed hamsters are these?
 
Last night i was going home, when i saw 2 hamsters in a tiny tupperware container(the type you get when you buy food home) only big enough for them to lie down in.
So i took them home and had them in my old hamster tank..(my hamster recently died of old age so.. )
And i was wondering exactly what they are. They are kind of light brownish with a little 5mm-1cm tail.. Looks kinda like mice to me. The tail is furry too. Their body is about 3-4 inchs long?

And i know photos will help but its a little impossible right now. They're vicious. They bite me when im just trying to feed them :( my old syrian(RIP)was an epitome of perfect tame hamster. It never once bit me :(

They sound like dwarf hamsters. Could be Winter White or Campbell's as both are very similar. I've attached a photo of my winter white dwarf hamster, do they look like her?http://dwarfhamsterblog.com/wp-conte...rf-hamster.jpg

I agree syrians are indeed more tame.

Yea I think dwarf hamsters are more bitey. But that said, some are really nice. If they weight about 40-60 grams as adults, they are dwarfs. You can weight them on a small kitchen scale.
