Mud like thing? Mine will clump to like mud, nt sure if its consider sticky as mentioned by hun o nt
Btw the wheel, from wat i knw as long as they dun curve their back while using is ok
I use 7.5inch for my button, no curve

Thanks for the info, was wondering about a better solution than making a hole on the side of the tank. Thinking of using wires to hang the bottle in the tank, either that or just use a suction cup to put the bottle inside the tank instead of outside. Whichever way that works in this case.

Well, IT IS for my girl...xmas came early for her so yeah...you're still a girl k.

I use the suction cup inside the tank. The only thing to worry is they will bite the cable tie and the bottle fell off, and some intelligent one will climb up through the bottle. Make sure you close the lid well. So far my WW nvr bites the cable tie.

It's kinda like dry mud like thing when I clean their toilet. If it is still fresh can see that all pee makes the non-clumping cat litter sticker together but not to a hard ball like thing. Very hard to explain

Yes as long as they don't curve their back while running the wheel is good enough. But for me the safest bet is the 8" and above wheel as most of my syrian are over 100grams big. The biggest is about 160grams and the 8" wheel is just nice for her Currently using Wodent Wheel JR and Sanko 21cm silent wheel.

umm...may i know how to toilet train a syrian? they are easy to toilet train right? and my syrian bites me when i wana handle it. I bought it less than a month ago...do i still need time to bond with it?









Meet MOchie!

You can try to put his/her pee and poo into his/her toilet. You can also put the toilet near to his/her favorite spot for pee/poo.

I think Mochie got frighten when you want to handle him/her. You can try calling his/her name first before touching him/her. Some syrians will take awhile before they get used to you. Have some patience.

Try this next time he tries to bite you. Give him/her treat to make him/her busy with the treats instead of biting you.

oh..ok! thanks! she dont bite me until i transfer her to a bigger home... the home my ex hamster use to stay. is she afraid?

You should use mild detergent and wash off all the smells and germs of the hamster cage that your ex hamster used to stay.

i wipe already but still when i want to touch her she will terbalik.....

Should wash the whole tank first before placing the hammy into her new home. Not wipe.

Hello all again...

I have 2 WW male around 2months old. They fight with each other so I have already separate them for sometime. Nowadays, when i try to put the 2 cage closely...they both will stay near the fence and stare at each others for like 1 hour or more. Do hamster talk to each other?

Last time when at first I see them stare at each other for such a long time, I thought they wanted to play together. So, I try to re-intro them and end up both fighting again. Stick together roll here and there. When I try to stop them...one of them bite me

How come my Winter White the coat not as white or grey geh? Is more like brown colour coat and
it's getting darker too.... How come ar?

If I'm not mistaken , they're changing their coating. *not sure.

Their coat change due to the amount of light they are exposed to.
