My two cutie did not finish their food, they scattered the food everywhere
I refll their food 1 day once, I thought hammy like to eat much..
But they just eat some

its normal..i dont think hamster eat sooooo much..
they love to hoard their food..keep them in somewhere hidden.
when they are hungry, they take the food from the hidden stash..

greedy ham ham

Your WW looks thin, anyway, it looks like an adult too.

The colour is agouti.

For WW, it is best to house separately so that no fights would come about. Some may say no lah, keep in pairs lah.... but trust me, WW are happier when housed alone.

Unfinished food, you refill everyday? I only refill every 2 to 3 days, coz it is just food wastage if you keep refill and refill everyday. Hamsters are hoarders, they keep food in their secret storage and won't go hungry for long. So just let your hamster be.

I usually check around the tank to see whether theres any food left. If theres a little left, i refill, if not, you know what i'll do.

Hey guys!

Just out of curiosity eh, has anyone house two syrians before and they are doing well even they are adult? I had read up the first page and did google around. Just curious that did anyone do this before? Don't flame har...

You can see from those pet shop who keep few adults Syrians together, ended up all injured here and there. It's a good example. You can really see them fight and biting each other. I don't think if you already know the fact that they are solitary and yet still wanna take the risk of harming the hamsters by putting them together. Hope you can understand why we never put them together especially for those who do research before keeping them. If you wanna know and 'experince' more, you can go visit those big pet shops which they put adult Syrians together.

Let me introduce my 2 cutie, Fei Fei [fatty] and Tang Tang[sweet]

I'm sorry but i think you misunderstood me. I didn't put my hammies together in a cage.
Perhaps I'm the one who misread what you wrote. Heh.

I do understand that they are solitary. I read up everything basic that i should know before i get my hamsters. I don't play with their life. Like I said, just out of curiosity. Just wanted to know if any forum-er doing this in here.

Maybe I'm a newbie, but I know what I'm doing and my responsibilities. And I believe my hamsters are doing very very very fine.

Don't misunderstand me. I know you never do it, I also don't think if someone who do this will admit here as he or she will get fire from those hamster lovers. I'm just said that you can see the actual condition in pet shops. I mean those who really understand hamster and love their hamsters won't do that. Please get me right. Maybe my reply make you blur... sorry

Eh don't worry. Don't apologize la.. Make me feel paiseh nia. XD I understand I understand. Hehe
Everyone is trying to give their best to hammies.

Feel sorry for those hamsters in those big pet shop tho. Always hope that all of them will be adopted by others and give them a good home. But then hor, pet shop will keep "restocking" hamsters, which more and more hamster will be in danger.

Uh.. Don't know what I'm talking about.. Hope that I'll own all of the hamsters one day. XD Wahahaha! Think too much

how bout us eh?

anyways solved my problem about the hamster cannot climb into the habitrail ovo food section.. i juz went to buy a wooden ladder and now it helps my lil WW to climb up

i realise 1 thing my hammie likes to bite my hand why ar?

I like when hammies bite/nibble my hand. Wakaka.
(shutting up as not helping )

They're so loving. If only mine WWs can stick together like that

but does it bite and nibble all the time?
i cant even dare pick him up lol... if he bite my finger tips its ok not that pain but when he bite palm

Go buy the Habitrail tubes and connectors for your WW, Ovo tubes is too big for WW. You gotta check out the size, If your WW's head can go through mean the whole body can go through the tubes. I used mini tubes for my robos last time when they stayed in the Habitrail Safari.

Your hamsters are not tame yet. You must wash your hands before you touch them.
They bite for 2 reasons:
1) your hands smell like food, so they wanna eat.
2) they feel threaten
If they are new to you, just let them get used to your smell first by putting your clean hand in the cage. Avoid them bitting you. Then after few days, try to stroke them on their back, if they don;t run away, you can try picking them up. Do not just open the lid or the cage and catch them. They'll feel scared and defense for their life.
Good luck to you!

thanks for ur advise

i'll try that for now

wah ur fatty really fat..hahahaha very cute ur hamster

thx.

One of my hammy is sleeping the whole day. Now he is still sleeping><
I dont know why. But the other one is active.

I'm admitting. I did that last time... when i was younger... i had 72 syrians... not 72 in one cage laaaa... hehe, i had about 20 cages at home... so figure out yourself how i house them... Usually put male and male / female and female together from the same batch (from the same mother)... Those that is agressive and fight, i house them separately.... well... of course some of them do fight... but some don't fight also...

Anyway, bad example... i was only in secondary school... and of course never know that syrians are solitary animal... when they fight, we will just stop them and pura-pura scold them... haha...
