Well, I assume he's aging - we sort of acquired him and I don't know how old he is. More than 1, is all I can tell you. He is marginally less active than when we first acquired him, although he seems happy. He's very friendly.
Is balding an inevitable part of hamster ageing? Was playing with ours today and noticed that the hair on his rear-end is thinning. I didn't notice it yesterday. Feel very sorry for him, as his name is Fluffy.
How long do they live? I assume there is some variation, but on average, I mean.
Thanks.
