I let them crawl on my hand. Then I use my hand cup the hand it is on and leave a small opening so the hamster will stick its head out of the hole. Then hold firmly and lift it up enough so you can see the privates.
Try not to hold it in this position for too long because they will feel uncomfortable.

If it makes you feel better I've never been bitten before. Worse case scenario is it starts spitting up all the food in its cheek pouch. Kinda like giving up its treasure for its freedom.  But that's not good either so just try to make it as quick as possible lar.

Hold its neck can??but need fast coz its not comfortable for the hammy...

put it in hamster ball, then u can check it, haha..

i mean, put the hamster in hams ball, and hold the ball..
c it from below..

u can hold ur robo with ur fingers under it's armpits.. most robos will be static (wont move) when u hold em like that..

do it when they sleep easier, they still blur blur ma, then run slower..

can tell them take part in olympic  

LOL     go go go...
I also have 3 empty tanks with full sets at home.      Wonder when I can have all occupied. We're going to 1U to get my baby home tomorrow....    

ZooZone2 in use. All 2ft tanks. Planning to get ZooZone1 from Pet Shack but still in consideration as all my tanks are still very very new and very good condition, dunno where to place those tanks if I get ZooZone1 to replace the 2ft tanks.     Waiting to have the hamster room ready first then only decide what to do next, right now        

ZooZone1 is about RM110-RM120, ZooZone2 is about RM130+ to RM140+, if get from Pet Shack can get cheaper compare with those big pet shop like PLC and Petsmore.
Hahaha.... wanna buy my ZooZone2 or my 2ft tanks??? So far only Habitrail Safari and those Habitrail accessories can let go. If you interested then can PM me la. No thread for that.

    Too bad la, ZooZone2 is the last to let go is I wanna sell my tanks.      Sometimes feel it's a bit too big for 1 Syrian although JackJack is big, we keep him in there just because he is a real good escape master and ZooZone2 is too deep for him to get himself up to the lid, he is trying to by jumping    

cant touch them    , mayb not yet recognise me ma.. but the are lightning fast. jus a while ago one of them escaped when i opened the latch. it hid behind my cupboard.      haf to partially drag out the cupboard so tat it can allow me to move inside and retrieve the fella. really dam tired. chased the fella everywhere. now dun dare to kacau them edi.   

yea dude....now they really afraid of my hand.....lol....whenever i open the cage they will hide inside the house there or move to the den....hehehe...

Have been reading a thread in Garage Sale, this guy is selling robos and yet the other thread is asking people to give him robos for adoption. I think he is trying to get something free and get profit from there. Hereby, I advise every hamster lover do be careful what kind of people you are dealing with if you wanna give your pet away or get pet from others. DO NOT support people like this.      (Sorry for getting angry here, just pity those hamster owner and the pets.)
It's ok, you are not stupid la. Just maybe you just a bit impatience and wanna see him to be good and tame so that you can handle him like the other hammy you have.     We all also still learning la. Be patience and give him more time.
