If you have the space, a syrian would be a great choice!

Hmmmm... Well Syrians are my favorite (don't tell Eric) but all hamsters are awesome, I just go with whatever hammy is at our local rescue.

When I think about getting a new hamster, I always think, "man I want a black Syrian this time or I want a winter white".

Then I start looking around and something that I didn't expect jumps out and grabs hold of my heart. I'm sure whatever you pick will be perfect. =)

Obsidian is a Syrian and I am looking at building a 2691 sq in encloser that I can divide into two so maybe 2 hammys?

I get my hamsters at a local pet store called fins and critters in Shelby NC they breed for personalities over colors when I got Obie, I let her settle in then picked her up and held her, I soon learned she was a ghost hamster, but I did not mind I wanted her to be happy

Some hamsters get stressed by smelling other hamsters in the same room, be aware of it! :o I've only heard of it in syrians maybe dwarves, robos and chinese are more tolerant?

That's great! I don't have any good petstores near me. Unfortunantely, I got my first hamster from a petstore in our area, and she wasn't the healthiest, but if there is a more ethical petstore near you, that's really awesome! Also it's really great that you recognized that your hamster was a ghost hamster and gave her the space that she needs.
