i think its best to let the other hammy to fully recover first...let some fur grow back too....should be more than 1week....maybe 2-3 weeks?

huhuhu no need to feel sad la...things like this happens. we dont really know the outcome...usually when put new hamster have to constantly keep an eye on them at least 1week....if i m not mistaken la...well for now just let the injured hamster be on his/her own. just make sure the hammy is eating & drinking well. u separate them but still in the same cage right? i m not sure how to make them friends, cant recall anything but after the hamster recover already u can take them both out & play with them. maybe they will get used to each other like that too....

i dont think its a good thing to mix syrian with ww. eventho they dont fight, maybe just 'not yet'.....coz syrian living habit is different. & also its best to separate the syrian from the ww in order to avoid mix bread. mix breeding is very very bad, there are some health issues i heard. jxplod should explain u properly coz i didnt do much reading on breeding...hehehe not planning to breed. well its better to avoid something that we predict that can occur la...who knows later the babies might come out some kind of alien figure....i dont mean what i say la...but its just better to avoid something that is not good

what bedding are u using? how come the urine can stick to the fur its good to introduce ur self again & just prepare to get bitten

try to use only ur hand, without glove etc... especially those rubber material gloves...coz for some reason my hamster like to bite on rubber materials...bite my lan cable, my radio remote buttons & my unwanted toothbrush which i use to clean his toilet...

congratz....just follow what mortyfish said & the others

that looks like my cage

hahaha cool...

is that ur hamster? if it is then...

hamster tend to lose little fur when they started aging....maybe he is getting old already. a hamster average age is usually 2years...if lucky can up to 3years. maybe he is just getting old thats y losing fur & getting thin.

its rare for hamster to get fleas...unless u got dog or other pets in house then maybe its possible. anyway just check his fur...if incase u found any fleas then u can buy fleas killing spray. u need to change bedding & clean the whole cage, then spray on the cage. i m not sure if u can spray on the hamster or not, that u have to read the instructions. & not many shops sells that spray anyway but i know it exist coz i read before online

oh ya 4got to mention...there is also homemade fleas killer, last time i saw somewhere they got teach how to make for hamsters. but i would recommend to buy the spray first....if no choice then go for the homemade one. provided your hamster really got fleas la....if not better dont simply use...coz we dont know what are the effects to the hamster fur etc....u can bring to a vet maybe they can help u to check what is the problem, maybe they can check for fleas & if got then maybe they can recommend what product to use

that i dont know lol...never been to one....maybe should ask jxplod or others who went before

sorry to hear that....well they all gotta go someday....i m sure u been a good caring owner & that matters the most. at least he/she got an excellent life

congratz....lol more work for u

its up 2 u...not all male hamster will help...depends on the hamsters & ur luck i guess.

if u want to play safe i think its better to seaprate the male from the cage. even if its her first time, instinct will take over....& if she thinks she really cannot handle so many babies she will eat the newly born hamster(maybe 1, 2 or all up to them)....its normal....it is just the way how hamster rolls so we gotta go with the flow & roll with them

You probably will end up in hospital with an infected hand....probably it will get swalon 2x the size of your normal hand.... no la...joking only...

hahaha yeah nothing to worry about, just wash & use those soap for wounds to kill any bacteria you get from your environment. usually hamster bite got no germs or bacteria, nothing to worry about.

in my opnion i think its much better to keep the house....they & the mum will feel much safer that way....plus the mum will have less stress thinking of the baby safety if in the house rather than open right? incase if that 'case' happens we can always interact.....if special situation la....i think better remove the mum first....then put the forgotten baby inside the house without doing any damage or disturbing anything & then put back the mum....hopefully she wont notice

hahaha well its up 2 u guys la....

my hamster is starting to lose fur already....his fur not as thick as before....& behind him the fur quite thin d.....i think he is getting old already....

mine more worst like to sleep inside the tubes sometimes only he sleep inside the house. but these few days weather was damn hot...i see he sleeping outside upside down....lol....pity him

what is the medicine? just one time apply? btw where is the vet location sounds like a good vet....

usually petshop wont simply accept hamsters one....they scared later got health issue or any other issue. then if they mix with their hamster also later something happens...usually la those famous petshops. plus they got their own supplier. but maybe some small petshop might accept, no harm in asking

nope no need.....when i go uni...my mum will off everything...so the room gets quite hot in the afternoon.....when i come back i see he sleeping outside from his house/tube like dead already lol....i added a small steel weight on his house so that he wont be able to move it....sometimes i see he sleeps on there....maybe coz its more colder....so i think it depends...if the hamster wants to use it he/she will use it for more comfortable sleep....

i got a syrian hamster btw....so he is quite ok in hot weather

last time there was 1 guy in this forum said dont fed too much beans coz beans makes want to fart....but hamster cannot fart....dont know true or not
