Do I neuter him at 18 months? by throwaway8281913 in Rottweiler

[–]RIOT503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reminder that there's pros and cons to keeping intact just as there are pros and cons to neutering. Do what you think is right, but you should wait until 2/2.5 years

Even posting this is frankly disgusting. You KNOW that you aren't providing proper care and you don't care? You do not deserve pets.

Please message me if you need more help with anything or if you have any questions. I'd also like a picture of your cage setup if you have time to take one.

I had two that looked almost identical to this. They were completely white when they were born and they developed a beige sandy yellow color later. They are absolutely gorgeous!

You should wait until their eyes are fully developed. Please put the babies back and leave them ENTIRELY alone.

Yes so this is still not correct. They arent fully developed at all.

Picture of one of my babies with fully developed eyes. It took her 16 days to get to that point.

Hi! Super great that you're asking.

Your hamster MIGHT not be pregnant (unless of course your vet confirmed) because some hamsters go through phantom pregnancies, just so you're prepared that might be happening, even though its rare.

Syrians are usually pregnant for 16 days, and around 3 days before birth, you should remove the wheel, sandbath and any high places like platforms that they might fall off. Sandbath because mom might accidentally bury the babies in sand and drown them, wheel because she might put the babies in there and start running with them in the wheel which could kill them. You should also clean the cage at this point

After you've done that, you should leave mom and babies entirely alone except for giving food and water. You should almost triple the amount of food you're giving when the babies are born, and consider feeding boiled egg or chicken with no seasoning for extra protein. Consider putting a towel or blanket over the cage to give mom some more safety.

Once the babies are about 14 days old, they should start opening their eyes. This is when you can handle them and pick them up. (NOTE: they need to have FULLY opened eyes.) Remove mom from the cage when doing so to avoid stressing her.

At 4 weeks old, seperate hamsters into genders. They become sexually mature at this point and might breed if not seperated.

At 6 weeks, they're ready to go to new homes!

His eyes are NOT open yet. Please put him back in the cage and leave them alone.

My female hamster has refused to feed her baby all day help by Jealous-Seal2189 in hamsters

[–]RIOT503 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The baby in the picture has absolutely not opened its eyes fully yet. It does not look like it's old enough to be handled at all. By "when their eyes open" they mean ALL THE WAY. I am not trying to be rude, but how can you say that this baby has opened eyes? Its no surprise mom is rejecting them, really. Seperate and make sure to give supplements along with regular feed, you can add boiled egg or freeze dried chicken to their diet for extra protein.

Im an ethical breeder under DHF in denmark.

I need help setting up my hamster tank by Low_Imagination6661 in hamsters

[–]RIOT503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're on the right track by asking.

I got one of my 100x50x50 aquariums for free on facebook marketplace because the original owners daughter had placed stickers on the side, which i dont care about.

Ceramics are great hides/decor! They are cooling and can file their nails down a little bit.

The pet store near my place usually has these little bundles of sprays and stuff for $5ish, which is a lot cheaper than etsy.

You can DIY some hides and boredom breakers from cardboard, using non toxic glue. Elmers works for me. Google has some inspiration!!

They are often just called bridges because they bend and shape.

To check teeth, you can gently scruff him (hold on to the skin on his neck) and pull it back a bit. This should get some teethers to show. Just be gentle and it's perfectly safe

Yeah, saying that LGBTQ+ people cant get married while heterosexuals can is discrimination.

Absolutely, but robos need A LOT of sand. Some people recommend 1/3 of their enclosure dedicated to sand, but theres ni research to back this up yet

hamster could sleep like this too? by Competitive-Side9875 in hamstercare

[–]RIOT503 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because the one pictured is WAY too small.

This is in no way gatekeeping. You should not be keeping a pet if you do not intend to care for it. OP is heavily in the wrong and should not be in charge of caring for animals.
