I have just decided to get a hamster. I want a Syrian, but was wondering if there is a difference in personality between the genders. Are a certain sex more friendly etc?
When I go to the pet shop the hammies always seem to be buried and asleep, obviously as its daytime! But can I ask staff to uncover them so I can look at them properly?
What is the correct wheel size for a Syrian?
The cage is the biggest I can manage right now and I've also got a huge tub for a playpen. I intend to have him or her out every evening in the tub once the kids have gone to bed and I can keep a close eye on it.
Anything else I need to get or think about wweb going to choose my new friend?
