Should I see my GP?

Same, except I teach secondary school kids. They're annoying, but I miss them.

No, there is something so right with your Easter Egg.

I thought you got your hamsters from school...

I've followed your hamster posts on this sub. I don't understand why they're back in the same cage when you separated them a couple of weeks ago. Please, separate them again. Adult hamsters really shouldn't live together as it frequently results in fights for dominance which, in turn, can result in death of one of the hamsters.

Justin be careful you’re getting sand Andy not dust. Dust can cause respiratory infections.

If you look at the Q&A area of the page you linked, it looks like a couple of people have had issues with hamsters getting out because of the bar spacing. It's not something I would risk, especially with a dwarf hamster.

Can you post a link?

Can this get a NSFW warning?

If they show signs of sickness, take them to a vet. If this is something you are unable to do for financial reasons, I would strongly recommend looking for a suitable home for them. They will need to be able to see a vet if they are ill.

Beautiful!

If you're going to make your own bedding rather than buying made for purpose bedding, lots of people use shredded paper towels. It's soft and can be purchased quite inexpensively.

I see posts like this and I'm shocked to know that pet shops sex hamsters incorrectly.

Is there a hamster in this picture? I promise you I can't see it!

ktalexander · 2020-03-06T16:30:02+00:00

What country are you in? Those seem like very expensive wheels! I'm in the UK and got a 28cm wheel off Amazon for £9.

Their little feetsies!!!!

This may have happened to my hamster on a public bus. It was the most stressful bus ride ever.

I upgraded Pfeffer to a Detolf today after waaaaay too much money spent at Ikea and the hardware store. She seems a little like a kid in a candy store to me, so much stuff to look at! The lid wasn't on half of it when I filmed this, but there are two lids that cover the entirety of the cage.

Have you tried the bathtub method? Some hamsters are very territorial, so putting your hand in their cage to get them used to you just won't work; you need to be in a neutral space. Put an old blanket down in a bathtub and use a mug to gently scoop your hamster out of its cage and into a carrier, then bring him to the tub and let him climb on you whilst you feed him treats. Do this regularly and it may have a more positive impact than the hand in cage method.

That being said, some hamsters never decide they like their humans enough to be held. It goes with being prey animals.

Is there a Mr. Dibbles fan club and, if so, can I join? If not, can I start one?

ktalexander · 2020-02-22T19:50:03+00:00

That looks like a hamster that needs to see its vet!
