Well alfalfa is not necessarily for hamsters. Usually that i meant for guinea pigs and rabbits. But you can also feed them that. ( I had rabbits last time and give my hamster some hehe ) .

The bengy body spray also no need. Its just perfume for the hamster. The staff trying to korek your money only . Trust me , i have a bottle too.

It is better if you buy bathing sand + bathing sand box for hamsters because in the wild , they dont use liquid to clean themself ( except for licking their hands and wiping their fur ). Most bathing sand come scented , and make sure you dont buy bathing dust , buy BATHING SAND because it may cause upper respiratory infection to the hamster.

The multivitamin is okay. About the cold water , no comment. Just give them regular water enough. Rodents need to constantly eat to maintain their body heat. If you give them cold water , they will die of hyperthemia ( if i not mistaken this is spelled like this ) .


Aiyahh shud ask earlier . I had a batch of cute babies. Now all sold >_<. I suggest you to buy from missdiana on pet store.


Its better if u can take a picture. My hamster neck sometimes will pinkish colour , but that is because he plays with his water bottle and water touched his fur at his neck , thats why pink.


AND DONT GO TO ANIMAL POLYCLINIC AT OLD KLANG ROAD. THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO TREAT ANIMALS. MY GUINEA PIG + RABBIT DIED BECAUSE THEY DONT KNOW HOW TO TREAT THEM.

There is no vet around old klang road or taman desa that knows how to treat rodents. You need to travel a bit to find a good vet

That is meant for 'snack' the staff lied to you. Hamsters should have staple diet of kua chi and pellets and stuff.

I suggest you to buy vitakraft or harry's hamster food for your hamster. Its abit pricey , vitakraft about Rm10 a small pack , harry hamster RM20 for big pack. I used harry hamster for mine.

Well dont give them too much vege ya. Later get diarrhea .

If both distance are similar means they are same sex lor. I was able to tell the gender of my baby hamster at 2 weeks old. Its quite simple actually.

Dont be afraid to have same sex hammies. This is better than having 2 different sexes.

Please remember that when breeding hamster , there are loads of hamsters out there which have no homes . Also , the male and female can have problems with their mating organs.

My winter white female had 6 nipples. She had babies and there was a growth on her nipples look green and black like a big scab. Now she have 4 and a 1/2 nipples lol.

It is not possible to NOT have babies because male instincts tells them that they have to reproduce.

Its easy to sex hamsters. Male hamsters have scent glands. Here are some images.





This picture here shows a adult male hamster. See the scent gland?
And also , male hamsters , u can see the penuz. It will have something ring shape and middle there got dot whereas female is kinda v shape.


And here is a very helpful website for you.

Today i selling hamster to customer at my new workplace.

Stupid hamsters keep throwing their food out of the food pouch !

Lol , the hamster i was selling is winter white. I accidentally poked the food pouch and *bleugh* food all out.
The buyers were like OMG WHY IS IT VOMITING!
Me : Explains.


Hahaha good one xD

Some pet shop seller just want profit.

When i sell the hamsters , i do recommend customer to buy in pairs BUT SAME GENDER.
I also tell them the right size , everything they need to know about hamsters , including types of food not to feed it.

This people really irresponsible .. I love animals alot , thats why i working full time after my SPM .

And i enjoy teaching other people knowledge of what i know about other animals.

Its okay for them to not know much about the hamsters , but it is responsibility of the seller. They just want profit.

GRR NOW I RAGING DX

my parents says since my ambition is to be a vet , go ahead by all means to have experiences

come i sell vitakraft to u ... i working at pet shop there haha.

I everyday handle hamsters , but they cant compare to my little one at home because he will come to me when i call him to come .

@the guy with dead robo babies , sorry to hear that. But u should have google on how to take care of the babies before doing anything.

BTW ; scary things happen in pet shop.. That day wanted to take out a ww , look behind the wheel got few hamster eating the friend... alot blood half body gone , can see intestines...

full time

my hamster has a 2 feet cage for himself.

Till he does not even want to use the wheel anymore.

Poor old chip . Getting older.

move my hamster into a smaller cage. FINALLY he used the wheel ! and climb up the slide xD. Bigger cage using for my new sugar glider <3

OH MY GOD IT SNORES LOL *dies of cuteness*

i bought mine at petsmore

well it might not be turtle food... it might be pellets.. and a bowl of water is no problem.. i use a bowl of water for mine as well , a custom made cage. In the wild do u think they have bottles? Thats why its okay to use a bowl instead of a bottle.

thats why if owners are too free like me , i change the bowl 4 times a day xD... my hammie dont step on water. good guy. but that was last time when i had 10 hammies. now left 1 old male <3

they manja xD . bottle easier , less cleaning. thats why when i have no choice only i use bowl :c
