Hamster babies update

So far, all eleven are doing quite well. We have two runts, both of which are just barely beginning to open their eyes.

Right now, the babies are very active - wandering around the tubes and cages, one apparently never got back to the nest and spent the night with Aunt Frick. We managed to get Wander (as we've now named him) back in with his family.

So pic'y goodness:

And yes, we do spend hours watching them travel through the tubes, laughing our asses off, why do you ask?"

Its shocking how quickly they've grown. I'm trying to remind myself that we've got another week, maybe two before they go off to the petstore and new homes.

Gonna miss them :(

However, on the bright side (mischevious side, really) - there's a wild male rabbit hanging about our girl's outdoor den. So depending on how motivated he is, we may have two female rabbits pregnant by the end of the month.

Cannot decide if that's a good thing or not!
