I rare WW for so many years. Putting them together of never experience any fight before except once. Yes indeed the female and male will continue to breed provided there is enough nutrition and space around. Once my WW gave to 9 in a litter, the male stopping mating with the female. What happens is when the female are still feeding the babies with the male around wants to mate the female it will cause a fight and sometimes the female got stuck esp in bar cages and one of them step on them will also cause a fight. I saw it with my own eyes.

Ovo cage is nice for the hamster to play around but when it goes to cleaning it will be the worst part unless you're very free weekly to clean the cage.

Guess, i should stick with the regular cages then better ventilation

Sounds like a good idea, but im curious, how do you fit the bottle in a guppy tank?

Or create a S-shape wire. Get a plastic net. Make it like a pipe. Tie it then fit the bottle into the net. Then hang it with the S shaped. The net pipe should be slightly smaller than the bottle. So it can hold the bottle.

1. Drilling may cause the tank to crack.
2. Suction cups will leave marks.

actually...im having problem with my Toby...
whenever i wan to pet his back, he will be turn his head and try to hold my hand... looks like wan to climb my hand...Toph does that sometimes...and i will just let him climb....

So when Toby did that, i just waited for him to climb on my hand...tengok2 when he looked like preparing to climb....suddenly he bite me! aduih... happened maybe 2wice already...

I'm having trouble looking for ww / robo hamster...

Try to get robo or ww from breeder. I saw all the hamster condition at Mid Valley Pets Wonderland. Is so not worth buying. All in bad condition. They don't even remove the dead hamster and don't know when is the last time they clean the cage. I got one source of hamster mainly robo but bout one month once got the supply. All in good condition. PM me for the address.

Hi all.... I'm wondering, is there any lubricants that can help on the running wheels? It's really making a lot of noise. The effect is even worst when it is at night..

here's the link on ETHOXYQUIN. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethoxyquin

It is commonly used as a preservative in pet foods to prevent the rancidification of fats.

You can train your hamster to be awake in the morning and it takes time. Try to play,fill in the food during the day. About 2 months they will be awake on the day. But starting your hamster might dislike it. My robo active during the day. Provided you have a cooling cage. A heaty cage makes them sleep even more.

Ethoxyquin is a chemical preservative – and possible carcinogenic – regulated by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) as a pesticide. While ethoxyquin cannot be used in human foods, it continues to be used in many pet food brands. Ethoxyquin has been found to promote kidney carcinogenesis and significantly increase the incidence of stomach tumors and enhanced bladder carcinogesis, according to several studies, including a recent one by The Department of Pathology, Nagoya City University Medical School, Japan.  http://www.aplus-flint-river-ranch.com/def...n.php?win=small

to get more info why don't use search engines(yahoo,google, etc...).
although a small amount is used when we give those food( with E) it accumulates in the animal's body. plus, not all animal food i guess. i just refered to sluis's ingredients. it doesn't contain E. but it consist of Tocopherol which is safe.

do breeder celect brand manufacture recycled paper as bedding?

Oh babyoil~ maybe i should try that... since i dont have Vaseline also.
How about the other kind of lubricant? Err.... 'those' kind? Save to use also ?

if you kept it ina dry place and water never/didn't enter. i think it would be fine. perhaps, check the exp date too...but, maybe you would like to stick on the safe side.

its been one week me wtih bibo...but bibo seem not really frenly with me...it is hard to take him out of the cage...always runaway..like playing hide n seek

Wanna ask sumthing...Having problems wit my new Robo.
How come my robo hammies sleep all the time???
They always run away from my hand... Even when I'm holding food for them! WHY??? WHY??? WHY???

Im having doubts about my Hammie Breed.

Can anyone or any hammie sifu's out there double confirm what kind of brred is my hammie?

I did some research its a Campbelli (Phodopus campbelli) Breed

It does bite when my hand goes inside the cage to fetch them, but once they are on my hand they are ok. So just wanna know if any of the Hammie experts out there can help me identify which breed they are.

They have a long nose, eye slightly reddish similar eye like albino animals.

attached with are the pictures of them









I was told that this is a Panda Hamster? Got such breed? I previously owned a winter white and they died of age    Now after seeing these hammie, i decided to go for it again. The shop clearly said its a Panda Hamster but when i do my research nothing much specific info i can find about them.

Hopefully can help me identify what breed are they.

Thank you in advance.

wow..angelbratz i like the color of your hamsters...

issit painful when they bite?
i become phobia of handling Toby...so scared... wherenever i caryy him, my palms will go sweaty... huhuhuh...

saying to myself quietly..."don't bite me...don't bite me.."

I think your hamster is syrian one larr..but the colour a bit different.

so cute with black n white....its a panda hamster...syrian is so called panda hamster bcoz of its behaviour....but urs more equally likely to panda...so cute.....
