From V7 first page
Also can see that you are using newspaper as the bedding. Please change it as the ink used are poisonous to hamsters and other small animals if eaten.

Hmm...  hmm.gif  hmm.gif Your hammy ate it or it ran away? You better feed your hammy with mealies in a different tank. This is to avoid un eaten part of mealies or the whole mealies ran away from the bowl and hide somewhere in the tank.  sweat.gif

i feed mine one by one... they will eat them as soon as i give them the mealworm....

but now i stop giving mealworm adi.... after a week of feeding, they turned aggressive... sweat.gif

mealworms and aggressive don't related..  smile.gif

temp breeding is related to aggressiveness.

my ww rolls around in the bath sand but also poops there. DUnno if i should take it out of the tank or not and only put it in occasionally or not
*
jz put in there lo... i had 2 separate litter bowl and sand bathing bowl for my hammies.... litter bowl is filled with beach sand while bathing sand bowl using normal "apple smell" bathing sand bought from jusco... sweat.gif

yea, fortunately they didnt pee inside da bathing sand bowl... only pee inside the litter bowl... one hammy occasionally sleeps inside the bathing sand bowl (because its cooling during day time).... sweat.gif

you use hand to feed the worms or use forcep??
if use hand, sure they try to bite cos your hand got worms smell

use forcep... but after feeding, i handle them with bare hands, they kinda nibble my finger abit... sweat.gif

QUOTE(jayniel @ Jul 20 2008, 02:59 AM)
not BC lah.. BC we normally use for hamster's bedding, not toilet sand.. it's those that look like big sand particles, but with cement smell.. hamsters toilet sand should be easy to find ar..
temp breeding = temperament breeding..

not sure if u should use beach sand.. if it's untreated, it contain a lot of bacteria & other microorganisms that could cause health hazards to ur hamsters.. stick to cat litter/hamster litter.. better safe than sorry smile.gif
*
once my hamster pees inside the beach sand, they dont roll on it... they jz roll on it when its new...
hence, each time i change the sand, i'll leave some old soaked sand with pee inside... jz a reminder for them that its a toilet... laugh.gif

Hey, does your hammie start eating mealies? Mine still not eating any, even I leave the mealie in another bowl for days. Well, I didn't leave the staple food bowl empty because I don't have time to really keep my eyes on it for few hours. Sigh.

I even tried beheaded the mealies head and leave it in the bowl. Didn't work as well.

Help..  icon_question.gif  icon_question.gif  icon_question.gif

how do i train my hamster not to be so defensive and wont bite me when i try to catch him/her? mine is dwarf hamster, 1 male 1 female.. both also sensitive and offensive
*
go wash ur hand.... den lower ur hand into the cage.... let them smell ur finger.... if u afraid, back off if they start touching u or tries to attack ur hand.... jz let them smell ur hand for a few days.... get them used to ur smell around the cage.... when u confident enough they aint attacking u when u lower ur hand into the cage, try scoop them up with both hands... place them on ur palm... do not squeeze or hold them tight.... do this as often as possible for a few days.... jz repeat the routine again n again as much times as u can... most important part is let them remember ur scent and let them know ur scent aint a harm for them... soon, they'll start accepting u...

i bought my ww from petshop.... both previously vr offensive when i first bought them... i took about 1 week or less to tame them... none of them ever bitten me till bleed yet.... nibble abit got la, when they aint happy when i pick them up... hahaha.... tongue.gif tongue.gif

anybody ever leave ur hamster 4 4 days?

QUOTE(sangels @ Jul 24 2008, 01:51 AM)
Err... ok , its skin also smelly, cos the smell not only at their fur but if you touch their skin, your finger also will be smelly. Kuaci will cause them smelly? This I don't know. I only know if they eat yogurt, their pee will be very smelly. 

You can leave them for 4 days by providing enough food and water for them. Do not give fresh food as it will get rotten after a day and it can attract ants and grow bacterias and it is bad for your hamsters. If can then clean their cage before you leave, so that they won't get smelly when you come back. Make sure the cover or lid is closed and safe to avoid them from escape.
*
and make sure the water bottle aint leaking.... to be safe, add another water bottle, jz in case the first one leaks.... and try put a bowl or somesort under the water bottle... jz incase it leaks, the water will be collected in the tray/bowl... wont wet the beddings....

im not too sure man, they seems like dont like me maybe because im not their ori user? they was given by a friend of mine coz they got alot of hamster and he is quite bz to take care every one of them sweat.gif

btw, my hamster at least 1 year old.. but they doesnt breed wor sweat.gif
i know hamster male will eat their offspring but how do i know if the female pregnant or give birth so that i can saperate the male?
*
be patients... taming ur hamster is like courting a gal... need lotsa patients... laugh.gif
when the female give birth, u separate the father lor... but in some cases, especially robos, the daddy would help n take care of the babies as well...
last time when my syrian hamster gave birth, the dad helped to take care of the babies... somehow a few days later i separated them because the father was too clumsy, alwiz disturb the female and make her angry... laugh.gif laugh.gif
