Hey everyone - as it was Pancake Day here in the UK yesterday we treated each hamster to a little mini pancake! As there is only egg, milk and flour in them they are safe in a tiny amount as a little treat. Most of the guys pouched them straight up with only Lance having a little nibble. Here are a few pics! - Anastasia
Hey everyone - a belated Happy New Year from all at Custard! Yesterday we went to the Bradford Champs show. It was a good day out and is always an enjoyable show as there are lots of other small animals like rabbits and guinea pigs there and loads of stands to look around. We spent the day helping out with the pen and book stewarding for the Syrian judging which is always nice. We only took 3 of our hams with us - Rupert and Creamface for their first show, and our little Chinese Lance. Rupert and Creamface are both still young and didn't place, though we are proud of them for being so well behaved! Lance however was our little star of the day and came first in his class out of 10! I've included a couple of pics of the day below - hope you enjoy! - Anastasia
Hey everyone! Hope you all had a great Christmas! Our hams all had a lovely day and got lots of treats. I made them each a 'cracker' - a toilet roll filled with treats and wrapped in wrapping paper - and they had a great time unwrapping them and chewing them up to get to the treats. Here are some pics which I hope you all like! Each hamster also got a tiny platter with a little piece of turkey, brussel sprout and parsnip!
Merry Christmas! - Anastasia Hello everyone! Wishing you all a very merry Christmas! Thought I'd post a few pics I've been saving - before the Orlillies were separated and went to their new homes we took a few Christmas-themed pics, so hope you enjoy them! - Anastasia
Sadly this week we have had to say goodbye to the majority of the Orlillies, and all but one have now gone to their new homes. It has been a joy having them here and raising them and we are sad to see them go but we know they will all be well loved and cared for. Custard Hamstery is now very quiet! We still have Creamface, Azula and Rupert who we will be keeping, and Albert whose new owners are coming next week. Here are the remaining four. - Anastasia
More individual baby pics! We've been having a lot of photoshoots lately as soon the babies will be going to their new homes and we're going to miss them a lot! This post is going to be a long one as I'm adding an individual slideshow for each baby. Azula Creamface McPatch Flash Maple Albert Jem Magnus Rupert Golden McGold Apologies again for post length but hope you enjoy seeing each of them in all their glory!
- Anastasia Hey everyone! Here's some more individual shots of each baby - we had a Christmas-themed photo shoot with them which I'm sure you'll see more of later! We have now moved the girls out from Billie and I think she is enjoying having some peace and quiet again. We have also definitely decided who we're keeping - Creamface, Azula and Rupert will be staying with us here at Custard Hamstery. - Anastasia
Hey everyone! All our babies have been matched to their new adopters so we know where everyone will be going now. We separated the boys from mum Billie a few days ago, after a final goodbye run around in the corridor (fully secured, supervised and 'hamster-proofed'). They have settled in well to their new cage. The girls are still living happily with mum so we will leave them together a little longer. - Anastasia
More pics! The babies have had some visitors recently - their new owners have come over the past few days to meet them and handle them. They are almost 4 weeks old now and all weigh over 80g. They are fully weaned and we will be taking them off Billie soon - I think she is getting a bit tired of them as she is always begging to come out for a cuddle! - Anastasia
