Brands like Habitrail and Ocean Free has so much more corn and kuaci in it. Of course I'm not saying Prestige and Harry Hamster don't have but they have a lot more other varieties too. Like prestige got those prune like things.

Safwan, do you feed fresh? With fresh they eat less dry staple food. tongue.gif Won't finish so fast.

jamien...do i get prize again for this? laugh.gif laugh.gif
i can't wait to go pasar and buy more veges for Toph muahaha...
but im scared later he'll get diarhea if he eats too much fresh food...is it not so?

i noticed Toph's fur sometimes lookd like it's a bit wet [fur at his back, not tail area]... sad.gif
does syrian clean themselves until they actually make their fur look wet?

or is it becoz of something else? i didnt really notice whether the fur dries after sometimes though.... blush.gif

It is often found that many people do not possess a strong reading and researching habit.  Although there are often long and informative posts on the first page, newbies do not seem to read them and have to be reminded frequently to do so.

Here I have made some simple and short notes. I sincerely hope that newbies will take at least 5 minutes to read them.

Housing & Setup:

Winter Whites, Russian Campbell Dwarf Hamsters, Roborovskis and Chinese Dwarfs can be housed in the below cages as well as a 1.5ft Plastic Guppy tank.
user posted image

Syrian Hamsters need to be housed as below, with either an 8 inch Wodent Wheel or a 21cm Sanko Silent Wheel:
user posted image

Items needed:
- A right size of tank or cage.
- A wheel is MANDATORY.
- A water bottle
- A food dish/bowl
- A toilet (if your hamster is toilet trained, Syrians are easy to toilet train)
- Bedding: Breeder Celect, Corn Cob, Wood Shavings (no pine, no cedar)

Diet & Supplement:

Main Diet:
- Prestige Hamster Nature
- Britter Bunny
- Nutri-Smoothie (a Balanced Diet of fresh)
- Oxbow Hay Cake
- LC-Vit Syrup (Multi-Vitamin)
- Calci-Aid (for growing pups and nursing mothers)
- Organic Vegetarian Powder

Others:
- Rolled Oat
- Millets
- Sesame Seed
- Wheat Germ
- Buckwheat
- Dahl
- Pumpkim Seed
- Toufu
- Almond Seed

Note: Ratio of mixing Prestige Hamster: Britter Bunny; 1 bag(800gm) : ¼ bag(250gm)

BIG NO-NO food!!
- Chocolate
- Onion
- Garlic
- Cabbage
- Orange
- Pineapple
- Grapes
- Coffee

eheheh ya ya nezu...study comes first blush.gif

oh, sory2 i gave wrong info and pics about prestige hamster doh.gif
btw, wats the difference btween prestige mini and prestige hamster? the nutrients? or variety of food? or...? unsure.gif

oya, how exactly to give a lot of fresh food?
if i put the food in the bowl, im scared Toph will hoard all of it and put it in his house...
if he does this, the fresh food might become not fresh when he eats it later on...

dats why i dun dare give him lots of fresh food...everytime i give him, i just give some, and will make sure he finish b4 giving him more.
umm...like dis got a bit hard to give lots of fresh food because i have to monitor him.

how aa?

actually, if your ham treats his bowl as where he stashes his food, then ok lo. My hams stash their food in their bowl, or their smoothie dish if got. And they usually eat finish their fresh since i agak agak the amount daily.
*
so nice your ham ham like dat... mine stashes selected food in his house...huhu...n then dunno how he usually sleeps, maybe roll here and there sweat.gif until some the food got pushed out from the house and mix with bedding outside... sweat.gif sweat.gif

scared later the fresh food he brought to his house will get pushed out and mix with beddings, worse if the bedding covers the food and the food starts to rot without me noticing it...[since it's covered deep down in the beddings] sweat.gif


ummm another ques... Frissian cat litter really won't clump rght? just to confirm b4 i go buy 2moro...smile.gif the toilet sand that comes together with the "living world" toilet...if not mistaken that one clumps...this true aa?

toPh smile.gif

user posted imageuser posted image

now he still gets startled pretty easily...do syrians get startled easily?
or issit becoz toph still not used to the environment?
this sunday i'll be bringing him along to a place - approx 1 hour drive..
if he havent settled down now, im worried the journey might make him more stress sad.gif

ayo...keep on editting my post... just now toph was biting the cage...then i called his name...approached slowly..

suddenly he ran to the opposite direction very3 fast, if not because of the cage, sure he sprint 100m oredi..
then i keep on calling his name...touched the cage to see how severe he bit it..

guess was happened? he jumped once, like wan to run 4 his life...

y is Toph so scared like dat? startled very3 fast sad.gif sad.. issit bcoz he's still young? is 1month plus young? no right? haihz...very worried...

too heavy for robos to run. get a small silent wheel will be the best. u happy ur hammi happy smile.gif
if u can feel the bone. then the hammi is skinny. Toph is scare, can be Toph never have human contact until he meet u. so he will take some time to accept n gain trust from human. so it slowly he will be find, unless there are some genetic problem.  and remember this is not 1 day, 1 week or 1 mth to change. it can take u few mths.
*
genetic problem? hmm...wat kind of genetic problem?
wat i know from his last owner is...Toph's mother was pregnant to his batch not long after her 1st delivery...around 1month plus like dat..
it was accidental sweat.gif

does short gap between pregnancies affect the nature of the later pups? like Toph? sad.gif

and the ex-owner also told me though Toph can be handled well by her, he is the most 'naughty'/'active' one...

don't know what she meant by that...
is that why my Toph is so scared? hehe....i hope its not the gene...hopefully it's becoz he hasnt get use to the environment....uhuhu...

umm.. i think better try not to clean the cage yet... if you really need to, change the beddings from the area away from the litter.
if need to pick up babies, rub spoon with the old bedding b4 u scoop them..

but if me, maybe i dont dare do that heheheh...

just started using frissian non-clumping sand....
somehow Toph looked like he's trying to eat them sweat.gif but maybe found out the sand too hard (??) then he'll just go out of the toilet..
did that a few times..

so weird...he never store his food in the toilet b4 dis, but last nite after i change the toilet sand, i saw him storing food in the toilet..then after that slept there...hayo..

then i took out the food and put it in his house...hopefully he get the lesson there..huhu..

i have not see him peeing in the toilet le... sweat.gif

question is...if he accidentally ate small pieces of the sand...issit fatal? sad.gif
or should i mix frissian with a bit of his old toilet sand to let him know its the toilet?

odd_mochi: don't worry. It is non-clumping so it'll go into your Toph's system and straight out. There will be no impaction or anything.

Your Toph is biting the litter to try if it is food. It's normal la. All hams nibble and bite to feel.

sweat.gif Don't put the food back in the house. Put back in the bowl  ma. You're encouraging it to use the bowl, not the house.

Mixing a bit of his old toilet sand, preferably with pee and a bit of poo in it is perfect! The smell will give it the idea that the litter is not food.
*
ya hoR! should put in bowl...adui... doh.gif
hmm..i mixed some old toilet sand oredi..
from this thread, i read syrian don't usually use bathing sand...
i din know that so i ter'bought bathing sand and place for him to bath too..
Toph likes to play wif sand wo... will be digging the sand to the other side of the toilet until no more sand...
then go to the opposite side and do the same thing again...
he even tried to rub his body with the sand by leaning/ rubbing sideways..haha laugh.gif

sweat.gif i just went and check him....he sleeping in his 'bath tub'...susah juga this Toph...

oh...is dried mealworms ok? as in...as good as the fresh one? unsure.gif

hmm would like you ask a question...2 questions actually tongue.gif

what noise would annoy/startle your hamster the most? HEheh...just wanna know..

second ques, it is very obvious that most people here said 2ft tank is the recommended house for syrian [mayb apart from others like zoozone etc].
but why 2ft tank? if becoz the base big, there are cages with big base too...

but then again the argument will be cages are not so good for hamsters that likes biting cage because the paint might cause impaction in the intestine... apart from this, got any other reason y ah?

eventhough both cage and tank can put toys in it....compared to a cage that has [for example] 2 storeys...tank like do not have much things for hamster to do [climb to 2nd floor etc]...

hehe i just wan2 be clear about this....who knows in future got ppl ask me...then i know exactly wat to explain wink.gif hoho...

tq smile.gif

by the way, today will be Toph's longest car ride...45mins-1hour...hahah...
kesian him...hopefully he'll be owhkay....smile.gif
