OMG, so cute... adorable..

@Jamien: yalo, still can't intro, she'll be paranoid and stay at the corner if i put them together in a tank with a splitter(i used the tank cover) in between.

@jayniel: hehe, by tat time u told me to put a splitter in between, i straight away start the constructions ady:), din see your subsequent msg. I did put her alone in the new tank after i brought her back from you, but she juz look not happy, the coat become wet and shivering on the wheel. After i put in other robos on the other side of the splitter, she looks better and start wondering around and sand bathing herself. Another thing -> If any buyer of her sisters or brothers FFK, do let me know

Recently my WW like to bite on the cage bar.. how to avoid this?

cant avoid unless u change to tanks

maybe your hamster out of fear,it does not want to live in cage so you better take it out of cage for sometime. don't keep it hungry for long maybe can also be one of the reasons. this is what i had read from the net. but mine i bought chewing bar for them then problem solve~

CAnt be avoid.Some PRO have use the stick but failed.
Change to tank or non-bar home for your hammie.

aiks.. It only happened recently..
Usually how many inches of running wheel should WW have?

Added on August 24, 2008, 3:38 pmhaha.. i used to take him out from the cage everyday and spend a few minutes to play with him.

I bought CritterTrail X for him.. it cost me RM150++ already..

hmm.. mind me to ask what stick do the PRO used?

The stick or chew bar mentioned is basically a chew toy. wooden chew sticks and those like that.

You can try using it but it does not necessary solve your problem. If your hamster is only teething then providing a chew toy can help solve the problem.

But if your hamster is chewing because it likes the taste of metal, like many hamsters do, then it cannot be solved with a chew toy. Only changing to a tank will solve your problem.

BTW, Roche had her first heat yesterday. I took her out of the cage and plopped her on my brother's shoulder yesterday night. Then he was stroking her when he said "something smells bad". Roche never smelt bad so I picked her up and smelled her. Then there was a horrid musty smell... It stuck on my hands even after i wash with detergent.

ya i agree.. those chewing stones are of no use.. they'll still bite the cage bars cos it taste better than the chewing stone/wood..

btw, try this method: put a stainless steel spoon in the cage.. hamsters like the taste of steel, so they will bite the spoon instead.. it could prevent the cage-biting habit.. i said 'could' cos not all hamsters are the same.. some may work but some may not.. i forgot this method was taught by who ady.. was it crazymouse?

@Jamien, the smell really stuck on ur hand ar? hmm.. that's kinda troublesome if cant be washed off..

I wonder what will happen if you put your hand inside a tank full of MALE Syrian...
