Ham Spam

[ycbm]

I adore Dylan. Mabel is to dogs as Dylan is to hamsters

Dylan! ?? he is such a gorgeous boy

I love catching them sleepy and just out of bed for snacks

 

[smolmaus]

I have hamspam I forgot to post because it was 1130pm on Friday and we were having wine and freeroam time, a household tradition.

Very pleased she's happy to step onto my hands. My last girl was a stubborn brat and always had to be grabbed at a run when she was up somewhere she wasn't supposed to be!

She is rather lovely. Move over Dylan, there's room for two!

Fab pics, I needed some hamspam! Does Dylan have a sand bath followed by a little mug of Cadbury’s hot chocolate ??

He sends his warmest regards to his fans! Rumtytum - a little hot chocolate with a thimble of whisky for good measure

I had a very close call on Friday! Dylan was a naughty boy. I put him in the bathroom to run around. My toilet is raised off the floor and the bottom is open which I didn't realise. He'd crawled up the porcelain and through a gap where the pipe runs into the wall. Thought I had lost him forever and felt terrible. Luckily he came back out a few hours later. Lesson learnt!

Also, thank you to whoever mentioned a sand bath. I'd never used one before and my God it really eliminates the horrible ammonia smell. Life changer!

Dylan you naughty boy!
Can imagine how distraught you must have been IM, I’m so glad he’s back safe and sound ?

 

[smolmaus]

Dylan noooooo ??? Nothing like a hamster to show you where your house builders have been a bit lazy with the finishing touches!

Thank goodness he decided behind the toilet wasn't up to his standard of living!!

No recent ham spam from me, I have barely seen Cora since I gave her an underground bunker ? Comes out for snacks and p's off again until its 3am wheel time.

There is a bendy plastic tube that goes from cork log to the wooden crate under her wheel. It's good she's enjoying subterranean living I suppose but I miss her wee face!

 

[smolmaus]

Time for hamspam. Apologies it is all in video form, I couldn’t get a decent still shot of either of them for love nor money

Long story short she loves the crack between the tub and the wall and I just can’t keep her away from it

This one is just showing off her core strength

 

[scats]

Gorgeous hammies!

Mine have just had a clean out

 

[IrishMilo]

Your cages are so cool @scats!

I moved house this week and have a spare empty room. Genuinely considering just adopting ten more!

 

[ycbm]

Do it!

 

[smolmaus]

Ham room!! AT LEAST one more IM! A wee dwarfie maybe??? I do love having one of each ?

I moved house this week and have a spare empty room. Genuinely considering just adopting ten more!

I’ve added some more in now too. Another sand box each and an area of coco fibre substrate to play in. Will take pictures later.

I think you should get more Hammies! I’d have more if I could but I haven’t got the space to house another large tank.

 

[scats]

I wanted to add in some different substrate for them to dig in, alongside their shavings and sand, so I bought a coco fibre block to soak and dry out and I added it in. I’ve put Ffion’s at the front and Frankie's in the back corner. They seem to like it!

Ffion has spent the last few days destroying her lovely back drop... naughty hammy.

 

[IrishMilo]

Love his cute little face! He still doesn't like being picked up, so I don't, but he's more than happy for me to stroke him now

 

[smolmaus]

look at him he is perfect ?

 

[smolmaus]

An educational video, how not to pick up your hamster!

I say ow don't bite me but she really didn't it was a very polite "this is uncomfortable and if I wanted to I could prevent use of this finger for 3 weeks" laying on of teeth and I am so proud of her/ disappointed in myself

 

[smolmaus]

Extra one of her being quite thick

 

[ycbm]

This thread is number one on the feelgood list for me at the moment!

 

[IrishMilo]

It occurred to me tonight that Dylan doesn't have testicles... I think 'he' is a 'she'! At least Dylan is unisex!

 

[IrishMilo]

Oops. Meet Betty!

 

[scats]

Oops. Meet Betty!

Oh she’s gorgeous!

 

[smolmaus]

Ahh Betty is beautiful!!! ??? A milk and white chocolate ham!

I knew I was not going to be able to not have her as soon as I saw her! She is such a cutie and I think will be quite easy to tame.

Friday Hamspam time
This evening we climbed radiators

And our terrible crime of destroying Red Tube, which has been in the family for 3 generations (hamster generations not lasting very long) was discovered

The thud as she plops down ???

 

[scats]

Frankie a couple of nights ago


Entertaining Oakley. He’s such a good cat, he entertains the guinea pigs aswell. Obviously I’d never leave him and hamsters alone, but he’s grown up with small furries and just knows they’re part of the family.
