wanna ask this noob question...

Don't hammie knew they are siblings and so they won't have sex with each others? =.=!!! Or don't hammie's instinct tell them that siblings should not breed together.

Hamster don't care whether the other hamster is their sibling or not.
Male hamster have strong desire and will just have sex with any female
hamster they encounter. Erm.. wonder whether they have AIDS ...

just take it only

yay bought me hammies!!

haih.. even some humans commit incest lor.. what more hamsters?

one VERY stupid thing about humans when it comes to pet keeping is that they assume that PETS would like or must behave like human.

for example, just because we eat 3 times a day that doesn't mean pets need 3 meals a day.

case in point, just because it's morally wrong to commit incest that doesn't mean it's wrong for pets to do so.

SantaLady : ur ww so young edi be a mummy?~ Wow... if my hammie got partner then can be a daddy edi...hehe~~! but my hammie is happy to be alone!

CFP: look at this pic... familiar with this pose??..kekekkeke....

Oh? FYI I did not say pets would act like humans alright? Apparently some people just like to think that they're smart without understanding statement of other people. I'm not talking in terms of moral here. Nobody is. We're just saying that it's not good for hamsters to have inbreeding. And when I said even humans inbreed have totally nothing to do with moral or not. I'm just saying that if some humans have the urge to sleep with their siblings, what more a hamster? Even some humans can't comprehend the downside of inbreeding that's my point. sheesh... I wonder who's stupid now. Yes call me narrow minded whatesover or 'xiao qi', I feel offended.

i think goldfries doesnt mean it la... steady man!!! cheer~

haha.. haih.. nvmla.. over already. Perhaps goldfries didn't mean it in an offending way. cheers then lor..

hahaha ..

Hmmm... male and female... I remember seeing 2 females but then they are so young so can't see well.... Funny, my hamsters are easier to identify sex than the petshop ones.... A bit botak and pink? Hmmmm..... is there a larger gap for the botak one? You know lah, anus to genital..... if it's very close means female, if got a nice gap means male.

Hamsters have no sense of who is mom or dad or brother or sister. Instinct just makes them wanna breed and breed as long there are males and females.

Think of it this way, they got such small brains compared to ours.... we can think clearly but not hamsters.... they go more for instinct than thinking.

Added on June 23, 2007, 5:22 pmIf hamsters are bred at a young age..... they can become stunted in growth and would lead to a short life. Say the hamster's lifespan suppose to be 2 years.... it will cut short to 1.5 years.... pity the hamster right? Also, breeding is very stressful for the hamster's body as well if you do not provide quality food and care.

haha.. maybe you have to buy the new one.. hehe..

OH God!!!My pets are so naughty nowadays
my hamster did this very crazy thing that i scolded him so badly until i bought him a new cage( not his fault) but he could have died!!!!

Last nite,around 1am,i scolded my kitten for running around in my room and he knocked my hamster's cage,then drop thick books on my hamster's cage and the cage 'kemek' a bit....my hamster was a bit frighten because of the loud noise,strangely my hamster is not afraid of the kitten ,it frightens my kitten that caused my kitten to act like that I lock myself in the toilet(was cleaning up myself) my kitten thought i 'merajuk' ,kept purring outside the toilet door and scratching the door. After that,i put my kitten on the bed and he sleeps besides me.
At 4 am this morning,i was still awake(watching tv on the bed) i heard this strange noise on the floor..i thought it was my kitten but he's still sleeping.Maybe it was a rat but ive never seen any rats before in my house.The sound got louder abit..i took my torchlite and guess what!! My hamster I was like what?how on earth you got out of ur cage...!!!!Its a good thing i was awake and my kitten was asleep...if not you'll be my kitten's meal
I just dont get it...how did he got down from the table??the table is rather high.He could have broke his bones..suffered major injuries but he was running happily on the floor when i caught him I know the cage 'kemek' abit but impossible a hamster could climbed up the cage and squeezed himself and got out of the cage.I was so worried that he would climb out again so i put him in the jar with some food in it until i get him a new cage.I know hamsters are kinda clever too.Once they know how to get out they'll remember how to do it again. Im just so angry...if i was asleep that time and my kitten was awake...i would have lost my precious hamster Even more,jumping out of the cage like that you could have injured urself!!!I guess God was protecting him because usually i placed my hamsters on the bookrack which is higher than the table.If i did that ..im sure he would have died from the fall and its a good thing i was still awake...

I got my hamster a new cage and the guy gave me this vitamin drink (green colour) free of charge He said hamsters need vitamins but my hamster dont want to drink it...why?How can i make my hamster to drink it?
thanks

luckily your hamster still alive..
nice job you have done to him/ her..
thumb.. thumb..

about the vitamin.. no experience..
