Yippie! Another breakthrough with my syrian babies! FINALLY, Mokie and Miki is fully tamed. They can be picked up like MoFo and not running from my hands anymore. So happy, my patience paid off and I was never once bitten!! Hehehe... as a noobie I would say RESPECT is the keyword. Don't push your luck and if they don't like it, they don't like... just try again another day!

The only frustrating thing for me now is Mobee. He takes treats from my hand, lemme stroke/pet him when he eats BUT I still need the toilet roll to transfer him to my palm. Once he came out to my palm, he will fly off!! I always do this over his tank so he landed safely back in... I can't pick him up without him looking back and showed his teeth. He never bit me yet, I backed off before he had the chance He also treat my hand like a ghost, runs for his life everytime I came near (too near he will look back and bare his teeth ).

Maybe I should just be patient for a little longer. He is the smallest and I do think he is a runt in the litter. So small... maybe that's why he is forever scared and skittish.

Anyone has non successful experience in taming their hamster? I really want Mobee to turned out like Mokie and Miki... they are so much fun to play with now

Those are russian campbell dwarf hamsters. Their colour is mottled. The one on the right looks like an argente mottled, the other not so clear, an agouti mottled?

If it's a male and female, you must separate them now because if you breed them they will have eyeless white babies due to the mottled gene. Eyeless whites are hamsters that are born deformed and pure white. They usually do not survive for long. They may die anytime between being in the womb to a week old's time.

[color=blue]Since WW hamsters can live alone, might as well just separate them rather than having them to fight and terrified...[color=blue]Since

Please post this in adoption thread.

Just wonder why are you selling your cage when you said not enough cages for the rest? Just wonder, if me, tak sampai hati wanna give the hamster away. Maybe you can keep her still.....    

btw no more ww? That's the last one?

so what hammies u having now?

Hello guys do you know why My hamster has been making the sound like a hiccup? He making the sound normally when he wake up from sleep about 2-3 minute.

Another one, making the sound like wind from her mouth and she making this sound when she wake up from sleep. Do you know why?

Both of them so aggressive, eats, yawn, stretch body, cleans and runs as usual.

Most of the hamsters sold at Pet shops are long haired Syrians lah. They are young, that is why the long hair doesn't show much. But the long hair would depend on what you feed. Say you feed cheap food, keep in dirty cage, sure the fur won't grow nice and long. Mine also long haired.

As for separating cages..... do not use wire mesh you get from DIY shops. Hamsters that chew on that wire will suffer from galvanized metal poisoning. It shortens the hamster's lifespan.

Use plastic. You can get fish separators from the aquarium. Just ask them. Choose the one with less holes so that your hamster is less likely to climb. If you 2 ft tank is the glass type for fishes, then it is ok. But say it is those plastic ones, then forget it. Making a separator for such tanks won't last or work coz of their uneven shape like a trapezium.

ah one more...found in wiki. hamster not nocturnal, they crepuscular. ehehe dunno if its correct or not.

why did the mom come out of her cage??

If you don't find the mom in 24 hours, the babies can die from cold and also no milk. If you put with another female, chances are the other female may reject or cannibalize.

Keep on looking for your female. You still really have to find her.
