There are many breeders right here in LYN. I think the best way to tame a hamster is while it's still young, in fact from before it leaves its mother. So getting from a home breeder would make your experience of keeping a hamster somuch more pleasant and interesting.

I bought a robo from a pet shop. He was very pretty and his fur was unusually bright in color so I was very attracted. but its been 6 months and he won't stay on my hand for more than 3 seconds. He's been traumatized from a young age at the pet store. It would break your heart if you don't have the patience to deal with this kind of thing.

Prevent such things by getting a tame one. So always always get from a home breeder if you can, no matter which breed you want, whichever animal it is.

Which breed are you interested in?

Becareful when you buy hamsters from petstores. Most of them aren't treated nicely. I 'rescued' my current hamster from this petstore in SS2 which chucked 4-5 hamsters in a really small tank and just fed it kuaci & put in 2 inches of those huge wood bedding. Not only that, it screeches whenever u went near. Must hv been mistreated

looks like this

ss2?.....Irene Aquarium? +_+;; theres where i bought my previous hamster...which died..

lol! so cool

looks ugly. the holes are not similar to each other. hahahaha.

cant see the pic

Home breeder doesn't mean can produce very tame hamsters also. Some of the home breeder here just breed for money and do not really tame their hamsters before selling to other people. Pet shop like Pet Shack do have tame and half tame hamsters. So we must know who are we buying from.

Still can make some more holes in between the holes. The more the better.

Totally agree with you. Buy from home breeders who breed for hobby then. And pet shack syrians are so cute!! I'm still thinking of th red eyes cinnamon banded I saw that day...

jamien: buy it lor hehe. buy buy buy!

The eye is not the main switch for the personality. It depends on the hamster. Like us, humans, does the blue eys seems softer than the black eyed? Any gender would do but to mingle with, its also depends on the personality. Of course they are curious. And yes, thats the way to familiarize them with our smell. Lol

i think plc stuff dont' know the cost. maybe the supervisor is not update.. rugi then kao kao but goof for us loh go grab ..

Is there any breeder here who is selling young WW or Syrians here?
