then, how they using the wheel?

sniff* sniff* then play sumthing else they like to burrow oso ....hehe

don wry shenshen...the day i get my robo

but now...fast like shit...LOL...can non stop

Your syrian is a long haired.... Looks like it, do take a clearer pic please.

I also think it is not a cream.... looks more like cinnamon. Eyes what colour? Black? Red? Brownish red(ruby)?

Yah, your gutloading sounds fine. You can include carrot as well.

Yes, keeping in the fridge will slow their metabolism, causing them to slow in growth and activeness. This is useful for people who have trouble finding mealworms and storing in the fridge can last many many months. Also, when you store them in the fridge, they hibernate and will not turn into pupa or beetle. Will maintain as worms.

They won't die in a fridge, but they would die in a freezer.

Ah, rule number 1 loh... never kacau a sleeping hamster heheheh.

Turn black?

Anyway, I saw the other replies by other members.... do not listen to pet shop staff at Pet Safari.... they got limited knowledge. Separate the male for good now. Then you won't have a headache with many hamster babies popping up.

I think yours is a long haired coz I see from face..... this is how my short haired Golden looks like when she was young:



OVO wheel too big.... it takes time for them to learn how to use. That's why it is better to use a tank, then you can get a wheel that is suitable size and make it a better living environment.

the eyes are red in colour

Oh...Thanks crazymouse...

Wanna get your opinion here

My baby is 25 days old now, just named her 'Kiko'. She is not eating very well since I got her back. She eat a bit if I out the vege in front of her and she climb inside her fresh food bowl and dig around then come out. Only eat a bit of prestige. I'm thinking of pumping her as much as I can but what can I do to make her eat more as this is an important period for her to grow in size. Or maybe she is still adapting herself now, that's why not eating well. On the whole, she is very tame but a bit scared when I tried to hold her. Now just placing all the food around hoping she can eat more and leaving her alone at the moment.

Then it is a cinnamon.

I think she needs some time to get used to new food and surroundings. Get some dry dogfood as protein supplement for Kiko.

Let her get used to her new home. She may not eat much fresh foods coz it could be the breeder did not feed enough? Well, monitor her food intake for the next 5 days.

Ok...Thanks!!! I'll monitor her everyday. I gave her prestige + britter bunny + dog kibbles + fresh veges + organic supplementary powder now. Will give her more time to get used to the new home.

mind showing the britter bunny package picture?

Wait for me to take pic first...

I think this problem is common. The place I bought Pastel from doesn't provide a wheel for them to run on. So when I first bought him, he was very interested to try out the wheel but was running AT the wheel instead of ON it. Gosh I feel so tickled watching him do it. Should have taken a video of it.

But he runs on the wheel fine now. Your robos will get it.

dun get wat u mean

Fah cannot oh... I still got alot oh and they are growing XD Try to feed ba hehe, your hammies surely will like to eat geh.

Oh oh! Hmm... Maybe won't keep them in fridge. Worst case if they reach the pupal stage, either try to raise them or put them at the bush down there

haha.. raise them lo.. then every 3 months can get 200-500 mealies free

May i know when will the testicles become visible/obvious for a male WW? I know my YY is so underage when i bought it n thot to tame it up from young age as well as to rescue it out from the petshop. ok, The petshop guy told me it's male but it seems to be a gal, coz i still can't see its balls appear till now... i dun actually know its age coz the petshop staff also not sure bout it. its body length is about 4cm when i brought it back early this month n it's almost 5cm in length now. Anyway, YY is doing fine with its own tank. active, eating well, climb everywhere n getting more chubby also, never bite me when i hold it.

hmmm, for me, at 3 weeks old i can c their balls ady.. maybe u can post pics for us to c? if the 2 holes are near each other, it's a female.. if their far apart, then it's a male.. usually the balls are slightly pinkish & not covered by fur..
