Sangels, your new hammie could be a mink. Blow the fur and check the undercoat. Coz your new syrian has eye rings, which is someting minks, sables, rust. have..... but then I'm no pro with Syrian colours yet as I also am learning. If the undercoat is same as the top coat, then it could be dove.... if the undercoat got cream, means is mink. My minks got cream undercoat.

Dove is this:

Thanks Hun. notworthy.gif I'll check him out with his undercoat when I can handle him. Now he is getting use to the new environment cos his previous environment and treatment is so bad and he is so scared of everything. He will scream very loudly and style like wanna fight, very defensive still. I need more time to tame him.

It's heart breaking when we are on our way bringing him home. cry.gif The shop owner give us a 500mls mineral bottle with the side cut with some holes and a entrance for him to go in then sealed up with sellotape and let us bring home cos they don't have a box as carrier. We are like car racing kind of driving home with him struggling inside the bottle. Never expect a pet shop will give such a carrier for customer to bring a pet home. Some more ask us to buy a pair cos we can get cheaper.

Well, hopefully it's not as hard as you said  laugh.gif
Else i will gonna have a headache.
Hehe, cannot feed Brownie la, and hamster are very flexible.
Overseas Syrian can weight up to 200g , but our country's Syrian only 120 or so, it wouldn't be a problem for a Syrian to go anywhere it likes i guess.
Which section ? Please enlighten me.

WW can't climb 90 degree up la. Big Syrian maybe can. Maybe you try put it vertical first, then when they get used to it then only you change the design. The OVO tube is too big for WW to climb up as the diameter is too big for them.

I got a brush from Ikea, seems like able to squeeze inside the tube and brush it, but those tubes is like separuh + separuh, no need a brush to wash the inside of it lah.
*
No need that mikl bottle brush. The tubes can be separated into pieces for you to wash, it connected with the connector only. Just you have to dissemble and assemble each time you wash the tank. You need to wash every week cos closed up space will smell faster with their pee. Good luck to you lor.

So cute. Your new boy is really like my one that died yesterday. Got wet tail and died before I could give proper treatment. I guess it got it from the petshop. Luckily my other hamsters are all ok. This is my 1st case of wet tail at home.

Anyway, I think your baby boy here is a mink banded heheheh. He got cute eye rings. Got check the undercoat?

Momo looks happy. Kiko looks very good  thumbup.gif

Thanks! If the boy is a mink banded then he will be a special color mink banded as he is so not mink look except the eye ring. Faulty color maybe...Hahaha... laugh.gif laugh.gif laugh.gif

Kiko is super good and she is so strong as she can push the ceramic toilet sand bowl away from the original place. Do her own deco in the tank. sweat.gif sweat.gif sweat.gif Eating more and more... sweat.gif sweat.gif

Momo is so cute and rounder now as we are trying to pump him to grow side way cos he already fully grown in his size, only can grow side way. LOL... laugh.gif laugh.gif

The colour of the mink shade depends on how dark the Sable was bred to the Red eye cream..... my mink very brown LOL.... but you must check the undercoat. If the undercoat is lighter than the top coat, then mink loh.
*
That's the problem as the boy keep moving non stop. Not even a second. Plus his color is so light, the undercoat also hardly see clearly, for me it's almost the same. He also got very thick fur. Guess he gonna be very long haired later on. He just look like SamSam last time. sweat.gif

I went to the pet shop just now, for an exchange of my WW.

After i put those WWs back into the aquarium, in order to see if they're accepted by the other WW or not, then all the WW come and sniff them and they like playing rugby, all menekan my WW. Very scare they will fight in the aquarium just now but I guess they accepted them as part of the family ?
See them like that i also lega hati, always fight in my cage i worry until cannot sleep last night doh.gif

Then i brought back home a female Syrian.
Here she is :

[attachmentid=510338]
[attachmentid=510343]
[attachmentid=510345]

So good ar? Can exchange somemore, but rugi with 2 WW for 1 syrian.
She is a Cinnamon Banded. Still very small, maybe 4 weeks old? try to pump her since she is still small. flex.gif

Well, it's still the first day though, i think i better leave her alone first, she doesn't run away when i open the cage, i gave her a wood gnaw with my hand and she doesn't seems to be afraid.

Going to pasar to get some tofu to pump her this Saturday, maybe i will get some broccoli too biggrin.gif
*
Try to give vege with green leafs, they like leaf vege rather than those vege like broccoli.

Finally got a name for our new baby ----> TimTim. He able and not afraid of us already. He now will climb up on our hand and walk around. I manage to take him by hand rather than scope him out from the tank just now, just not used to be handle yet. He adapted quite well now. rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif rclxm9.gif

No wonder you say no poison. The petshops are a bit higher up from the chi cheong kai stores. It's not located at the cross area of petaling strees. The stores form a + right?

Congrats Sangels~ You got a half tamed boy.

@John: come down to KL to get from Hun when she breed her satin la. You're willing to pay a bit more right?
*
He wanna pay RM30-40 for a satin? That's cheap, I paid RM45 for my black banded last time. If there's a satin, I believe the price can go very high if you manage to get one here.

from where u get it? how come so expensive 1?

Black Banded is not easy to get here and it's rare about half a year ago. Shop owner also know that a lot of people are actually looking for rare color Syrian, of cos they will raise the price la. Just like Pet Family, Syrian RM25, buy 1 get 1 free, but black banded no free. RM25 each cos they have a lot there. The one I bought - Fumoffu is the only Black Banded in that shop and they claim he is imported from oversea, may not be trusted but rare color, I willing to pay the price at that time. He is just a good boy and I miss him.
