Should breed? It's shouldn't breed.....

Winter Whites are one of the very few "pure" hamster lines. Introducing another specie's of gene will just kill of the original line, making it worthless in pure WW breeding.

Also, you just got lucky. A number of females die from giving birth to hybrids coz the baby's growth is not the same. The pelvic size can sometimes cause birth difficulties as well. Campbells mature faster as well.... Please please separate. As they grow older, who knows what would happen....

Why we stress so much on not breeding hybrids is coz of the originality of the species and the risk of losing the female. The winter white's body development is slower, so breeding at a too young age shortens the lifespan.

Chipsi Classic is ok.

Animals of course poop anywhere they like. Not every hamster knows how to use the "toilet and sand".... you can try but you will still find a majority of waste everywhere while peeing is always done at 1 corner.
Why do you wanna breed hamsters? Please do research. Many people make a big mistake when they wanna breed hamsters without proper research. What is your goal? Also, you don't really make money. In fact, you make losses unless you commercially breed, which I find that sort of breeding very wrong among hobbyist. You do your research first before breeding.

I put my hamster mix in the transparent container, the normal one you see sell can put in microwave one... I store it my cabinet, with the rest of my dry food storage. Just make sure the cabinet is far from source of water and dampness la... if not your hamster food sure kulat one... put in fridge also good, that one confirm fresh lor... opened package biscuits also I put in fridge heheh, sure tak masuk angin and crunchy biggrin.gif
