Younger sis started rearing hamster few days ago..A Syrian hamster..Damn big..So I bought a wheel to attach it on the cage..Mana tau the hamster cant fit the wheel at all.. Think can exchange for a bigger size wheel?

Shoot..No wonder..I din realize that I bought the chisai(Small) version..Its some Japanese brand I guess..

Well hope that the shop owner can elp me exchange and add a few ringgit to get a suitable wheel..Chery can barely fit the wheel..Aih

Can barely fit but cant run.Already removed it..Going back to the pet shop that I bought yesterday and ask whether can exchange or top up for a bigger one..She is HUGE...Haha

Yea..Just knew..Try and ask the pet shop owner first..then will tell..

Hey..I actually removed the wheel the moment Chery cant fit into the wheel..Not trying to give her back pains or watever uncomfortable situation..

Got a bigger wheel this time but the stupid moment was when the cage opening was too small for me to put in the wheel..Thinking of detaching the cage later..Hmm

And I got some spare Habitrail parts..Some are from the space station series..If u guys want or anything just give me a pm.

One concern..my sister were given two Syrian (Chery and Berry) by my dad's friend who for some reason rears around more than 20 hamsters..I've read the thread and told my dad bout the consequences keeping two together..Now Berry is with her friend and in another cage..My dad asked his friend about it and his friend said its okay to keep two Syrian hamsters together.. Saw them fought before so a bit worried that one of them could die lea.. How?

The guy who gave my sis the hamsters( He has more than 20! ) said its ok to have both together..I told my dad about it but he would rather listen to an experienced hamster rearer's advice..So of coz I couldnt convince him..Just hope none of them died..

Im not the true owner..Just someone who has great concern for it..Nonetheless will find a way to convince him..And I got the Big Wheel already..Very nice..and its kinda quiet as well..

My Syrian(Chery,Female) always bite the metal cage aih..Tried distracting her by playing with her..But once put back into cage she goes on a biting frenzy again.. Think I shud get something else as a cage?

She's quite hard to tame for me..My other hamster, Berry(Male) so kuai zhai man..

Think gonna get the salt stones first..Read the first few pages of this thread..Toilet rolls..Iz it safe?

Chery's now sleeping after her biting frenzy..But she's hard to tame..haha..

Iz it common for a hamster not to run on the wheel..Bought for Berry but he tak mau run lea.Or he isnt used to it yet?

Its the biggest wheel that I've ever bought..Measure it from the diameter ? Hmm..If really dont want to run then its a bit of a waste le..

Here u go: But yea..I got a feeling it aint 8 inch..Rm12 dah gone..

Saw some pet shop at Hartamas selling the Habitrail 8 inch..Much cheaper,like Rm18 but I think it should kinda noisy at night eh?

Going to try feed them papayas..hehe..Small small piece shud suffice

Yea..Should be getting it next week.Anyway Berry ate the papaya while Cherry still keep it lea..Should I wait till tomorrow then only throw the papaya away if she dont want eat?

I hold my hamsters by using two hands and hold it from the bottom..then it tried to run away from my hands..Refuse my treats..Any other tips to tame it?

A few questions..

1. Is it best to tame hamsters one hamster at a time..Like I have two and I should be focusing on one hamster first before taming another one?

2. Would hamsters immediately play with their new wheel or it takes time for them to get used to it? Finally bought an eight inch wheel..But instead of running on it..They climb to the top of the wheel..haha..If still dont play then I very lazy to get another wheel lea..

Just found out that the hamsters my dad's frend gave is around 4 months..Iz it hard to tame at 4 months..Not easy lea
