Hey, I'm wondering if it's okay to feed a Winter White crickets?

nonono offering good price mah!

Don't think hamster will hunt crickets. We've tried with our 3 syrians. They didn't bother to touch them. But they will eat them.

Our SamSam ate the dead cricket left by our Echo our duprasi gerbil. There are pics and video in the fat-tail thread. But we didn't managed to take any pics of SamSam eating the cricket.

Ahh, my Winter White goes berserk over crickets, he hunts them down and chomps them up no problem. He loves them, nuff said.

Was just wondering if it's ok for their health and by reading your reply, I guess it's fine.

Well crickets are the same as mealworms I think. They are a source for protein and fat for our hamsters.

Really? Thats sounds cool! Now i have a no need to wake up early to buy mealworm.

There are only a few brands that doesn't leak. Critter Canteen never leaks if you place correctly coz it has a spring in it. I use that. Also, you know that Genting Kelang petshop? It has these bottles.... I forgot the brand, later let you know. It has double metal balls inside, which makes it never leak too. I use that as well.

Read above, get Critter Canteen, available at Pets Wonderland, Pet Shack and I think Pet Safari also got.

My Syrians potty trained. As long you put a bowl of whatever sand, Syrians will pee and poo in it. The only hamsters that would roll in the sand are WW, RC and Robos.

Yes, you can put outside but beware, it would get eaten by squirrels, birds and even rats.

Get a silent wheel that is about 7 inches. Those china brands.... could be small. Measure it before you buy.

Yah, storage box can. You experiment and imagine a bit loh if wanna make separator.

Is a Cinnamon Banded.... seller never tell you? LOL....

Biting cage bars is normal. That is why it is better NOT to keep any hamster in cages coz the cage metal produce rust. Rust with metal taste, when it reacts to saliva, is salty and causes the chewing and biting addiction. The metal would then slowly poison your hamster.

My parents also say the same thing. What to do? hahahah... have pets is like that lah if we wanna give them the best.

Crickets are better than mealworms coz the protein may be slightly lower than mealworms, but it has less fat.

wow cool....T-rex hamster....hahahaha

Genting Klang petshop.. Thanks!
but i don't think i'll be getting a water bottle soon. have 3 at home liao.
Yeah, i treat my pets as my babies. but my parents - my dad especially, thinks that i shouldn't treat my pets so nice.

um, i would suggest you to not spam here. after crazymouse come and scold.

Ohh,how much is the Critter Canteen will be? Standard mini size as well? Coz I saw got some long tank for sales,but mine is just mini and small and yet enough for him to drink since I noticed he don't really drink. Is that alright? Can hammi drink fresh juices/plain water+a lil glucose for adding up some taste to encouraged him to drink more? Thx

please refer here http://petshack.com.my/webshaper/store/viewCat.asp?catID=51

To encourage your hammy to drink, i read somewhere in this thread that u should put some Ribena in the drink. Fresh juices should be fine, cause it's from fruits/vege's anyway. But if u feed them enough vege's/fruits everyday, water shouldn't be a huge problem.

Experts do correct me if im wrong. Thanks.

i have 3x Critter Canteens. they're good, way better than those other nonsense that came with cages that often drip.

ey how to groom syrian hair so tat its smooth and tidy??? toothbrush?? i heard tat b4....

Haro goldfries, haven't seen u posting in this version and the previous ones. I LOVE your photography skills! *off topic*
anyways, how are your hammies?
Critter canteens are good, just check petshack website, it's about RM1 more expensive than the living world one (if im not mistaken)

I think i read before around the hamster threads. Use toothbrush, soft ones though. There are special brushes meant for hamsters also if i'm not mistaken, kinda pricey though.
