Cream looks like milky light yellowish color


Cinnamon is like orangy copper color

Actually if the hamster is less than 4 months old we need to pump them up to be bigger in size not fat. During that 1st 4 months are when they growing in size that is why we need to pump them up with smoothie and fresh veges. After 4 months old then they are unable to grow in size anymore but can gain more fat.

Hun,

We just got a baby red eye dove banded from a pet shop in Pudu. Looks like less than 2 months old. Very bear bear look and looks like he's going to be a long hair type. Now starting with the smoothie and fresh to make the fella grow in size.

Tooks some pics but the camera with Sangels now. She will post the pics later.

Well I'm not a dwarf hamster expert but I assume that we can also pump all the hamsters during their 1st 4 months. Hope some pro can enlighten this topic. Anyway I can see that during the 1st 4 months for my syrians do grow in size first with all the fresh veges and smoothie diet they have. After that they are gaining fat

The pet shop is near the mosque and Petronas. Can't remember the name. They do have a nice sable banded there also. Also cream banded and umbrous or golden banded. Didn't get it cause we decided to get just one syrian only.

Well big and fat to the correct size but not overweight. Those syrians in UK can weight until 200 grams and that is the hamster standard weight there.

Currently our oldest syrian, JackJack, is about 135 grams only but think he have been gaining weight from the smoothie diet.

Overweight not sure but obese yes if fed with all those not so healthy and fat/salty food which mentioned by CrazyMouse earlier.

Used to be 145 grams but after giving birth she is about 135 grams now. Nezu working hard to make her gain back the weight lost.

That was the previous tank and Sanko wheel of AshAsh (solid sable) whom ran away few months back. We still have another Wodent Wheel Jr and other accessories around for Foo's syrians.

The normal 2 feet tanks or any other size tanks have feet. You can actually stack them up. There is a gap when you stack them up to allow airflow. The cover of the tank have edges that allows the tank to be stacked up nicely in place.

Added on June 23, 2008, 8:59 amThe dove/mink (to be confirmed later) was terrified and you want us to hold in our hands? He was screaming and trying to jump/escape when we trying to hold and get a better look at him before we bought him. Doing so would make him more stress and prone to wet tail disease. Also what if he escaped while in the car? There is so much place that fella can hide in there. How to catch him back?

If he was tamed it will be a different story.

Better bring to a vet quickly instead of waiting here asking people...

I refrained from commenting on this.

I wish you luck and hope that your hamster get well soon.

Looks like a golden or cinnamon banded. Got a clearer picture? But don't disturb her now as she needs to settle down to her new home first. Can disturb her in a day or 2 days time.

I think she is not tamed yet. That is the same with our new mink banded. The mink will try to hide in his wheel, the toilet bowl, etc...

It's normal. Were you able to touch your syrian? If she run away from your hand means she is afraid you. Need to tamed her then.

It's very hard to tell which pet shops in Melacca have Satin unless you're willing to go hamster hunting in Melacca and find yourself.

Bought our black banded in a pet stall in the Cheras Giant. Black syrians are rare color that is why it is expensive.

Satin is also rare and the price will go up also.
