Hye guys! Finally finish reading from the first page, took me a week.. It's quite informative, despite the advertising and flaming.. No offence to anyone..

I haven't get a hamster yet, though.. Went to PetShack the other day (I think I met jtl..) bought some supplies, Harry hamster food, red devil smoothie, BC, hamster ball.. Convinced myself I need an Ovo for the future hammy.. Found it quite crowded actually.. Tanks would look nicer..

Now looking around for a syrian hammy.. My friend promised to buy me one I quite worry that pet shop hamster won't be very tame.. I like to pet 'em..

Wonder if pet wonderland in MV have any syrians... Do you guys know where I can find syrians?

TQVM!

hey guys, i just separated my 7 hamster into appropriate order.

my 2 female was fighting 3 days ago but they get along quite well before that.  i force to separate them since one of them injured.

and i have to separate my baby boy with baby girl and their mother so then won' breed.

my question here, will you feel unbearable when you separate them and settle them in different cages? i feel so sad as i cannot see them sleeping all together in a small house again ....

thats why i am sad. Cuz they could never remember each other even they stay together for so long. looks so heartless 

the reason i keep all the babies is because i saw somebody write a story of a hamster's life. the story talking about how the hamster being abandon and throw here and there when nobody want to rear it. and how pain it feel when her children was given away.

even i know it may not be real, since all of the people said that hamster got no emotion. but i still feel unbearable to let them separate. at least can let them see each other even not in the same cage.

anybody know the reason of hamster fighting? i wonder how can i stop them so that they won be separate 

hi--would like to share my robo pic...can't stand for their cuteness...finnaly got a pair..still dun no their sex,hope they are same sex..hard to identified---syrian are easier..

wow, athirah, wat breed of hamster are you planning to get?

I'm going for a syrian, since I'm a pet-er.. Now am asking around, I know the highly sought after is nezumitaro's fatsosos, no offense but I want orangey syrian..  .. My friend say I very 'gan jiong', coz I already put the bedding in the Ovo, now imagining the hamster is there ady..  

Why is bean sleeping like this in front of her house? Something in it? Need to change bedding or something bad is happening?

i'm so frustrated, my RCs seem so wild, it's hard to get closer to them..what am i supposed to do? i like towatch them playing with each other but, when i tried to pet them, they went to their bitey2 mode..aiya! so tidak kenang budi punya hamster..

robos are some of the hardest to tame because they are timid in nature. that measn they can get defensive also.

Love+patience=sacrifice

Or something Jamien always says. You have to either bribe them a lot and do step by step or you can just watch them...

if the bribing is not effective, then only take the hard way, scoop them up and put on your palm..
but since yours is robo, better use bribe, scare they dont accept the hard way

i spend most of my time after lectures juz to get to know them...i think i juz get syrian, i saw my friend syrian is so tame; no bitey2..my friend juz allowed it to freely walk and play outside his cage...so jealous, my RCs were like small tiger...

guess i am lack of sleep.. i started become nocturnal thanks to my hammies

use scoop method lor, they wont really bite if on palm, they will really bite if see finger

finger = food 

Like they already said, if you bought from pet shops you must be ready to put up with the biting, timidness, etc. Coz they are not used to human touch.

Although I read that RCs are more prone to biting..

Syrians are just bigger thats why they are easier to hold. Though syrian bites are said to be worse than dwarf hamsters as their teeth are bigger. What happens if you get a syrian that is just as bitey as your current RC?

Hi All, as mentioned.... here is the pic of my two hamster... which type are they belong to? 

Shud be RCs. Hav check their sex?... Sometimes the shopkeeper not so reliable
If it's really a pair, then you'll have to separate them unless want more hamsters. And do read for some articles on breeding b4 you do so, be an ethical breeder.

Anyone seen the new OVO Loft? Looks like 2 OVOs combined together to be big. The steel top grill looks like for better air circulation on the top. Looks expensive too...



More info here

It's just looks nice. Not practical for syrians though. Maybe dwarfs? Hm... Another question how much toys do you guys put into the tank with your hamster? Currently all my syrians only have a wodent or sanko wheel, brown clay bowl for toilet, 2 Ikea glass candle bowls for dry food and smoothie, a toilet roll, and a small plant pot as their homes. Anything more I fell that it is very cramped for my syrians in the 2 feet tank. In zoozone2 is a different case...

I think my cage is only 1ft long (not too sure) and only with a food bowl, running wheel and a water botol. Is it enough?
Is it possible to add another floor? Btw, the cage is similar to the Critter Trail Mini One shows in Pet Shack website.

Where can i get that please? I live in Penang though 

u mind show us some picture?? because that day i heard someone (sry cant tell who) said that hammy there are skinny.. no hard feeling, never been there so hope can see some pictures

@bytefreezer

Been to nearly all the petshops in Penang , very seldom can see habitrail, got also main cage or OVO cage and accesories...
My bf gave me 2 female hammies to take care, both siblings i house in same cage. End up fighting. Well... the white colour hammie (Scimi) ended up biting the agouti (yuan2) until she bled. Yuan2 was also terrified of Scimi and you could see they lived at seperate ends of the cages, putting 2 hide outs didn't really solve that prob as Scimi kept on 'cari pasal' with Yuan2. End up Yuan2 had this 'omg i'm so afraid' look on her face 24 hours and hid in her hideout 24 hours too.

Ended up seperating them in different cages. Now, Scimi is happy as a monkey in her individual cage. And Yuan2... she's sitting in her corner everyday staring into space with this o_o look... lol. Find this abit weird cos my boys (phing and Phong) are happy in the same cage until my friends say they look so gay -.-

Now my bf's hammy is pregnant again (doesn't wanna listen to my advice to seperate the male and female), so... anyone wants baby hammies in penang? >.<

Was thinking to do so.. the current gace can use to carry the hamster when going back to hometown the time.
