Hamster Clubhouse

Most likely...

Welcome, Angel!!

Update: I checked on him this morning, and BOTH testicles were enlarged... I think he may have just been a little warm, which we in the hamster community know... ahem... enlarges testicles! Plus, I heard him running in his wheel for a while last night (I was happy to be kept up by it, lol), and he c...

Hi again, I just took a picture of what he has going on down there (you can see part of his cute face). I'm not sure if it's his testicles or something else, but I don't like the looks of this. Here's a link to the Imgur: https://imgur.com/a/Dc2fGjM I would appreciate any answers... Thank you so muc...

Thank you!

Yes, he's 100% his frisky and adorable self (I love him sooooo much). I read that it could just be coloration with age... he is at least 1.5 years old (I got him in October of 2023, and I think he was around 6 months old by then).

My Buttercup wouldn't let me touch him for three months, but I'll never forget how bold he was (coming out, curious, smelling everything) for the first few weeks I had him. Only when he got more comfortable and trusted me did he calm down,...

Keep us posted on the babies! Also, I think rodent mill hammies are just scared. My current hammy (Buttercup) was from PetCo (I know, I shouldn't support them but he was so crumpled up in the corner of the tank that I thought he was dead-- I had to save him), and he was "sassy" for a few m...

Hey guys, and Happy New Year from me and Buttercup!

Just bumping this thread again because there is so much spam again...

Thank you for everyone who keeps Hamster Clubhouse going!

Aw, your new ham seems so cute! What a little love.

I'd still suggest giving him/her a few days, and then you can start to go in for some pets (followed by sniffs, of course) and some treats.

Good luck!
