Babies, we gots babies!

Look what we found cleaning out the cage today:

Surprise, surprise. Actually, 8 - 10 little surprises. We immediately put them back in the cage and Mom is nursing them without too much fuss.

Anyone want a teddy bear hamster in a month?

Mmmmm...maybe? If we can get one that is *not* a biter( I haven't had good luck with rodents. My brother had a very lovey hamster, though. I liked her. Perhaps I can get one for my classroom. I'd have it at home, but, you know, wicked cat. (My school's year-round, so I won't have to worry about Summer Vacation.)We'll see.

Aww, we'll make sure they're handled and non-biting, promise.

Teddy bear hamsters, cute and fluffy, white and grey striples if they look like their Mom.

I've had 2 hamsters over the years, both with loving dispositions. One would sit on a shoulder or in a pocket for hours.

For real fun, feed them Cheerios. My one hamster was able to cram 23 of them into her pouches.

Spent about 15 minutes hand-feeding the Mommy corn last night - when her cheeks would no longer let her through the tubes, she had to stop for the night.
