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! 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
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
Hey everyone! The babies are all doing great. They are 3 weeks old now and are all around 60g which is a good size for their age. They are all growing up so quickly with nice thick coats and are all getting very tame. They love their food and all come running out when we go to feed them! As always, more pics to follow. Hope you enjoy!
- Anastasia Hey everyone! Most of the updates now will consist of lots of pictures - the babies get bigger every day and it's becoming easier to recognise each one as their individual personalities begin to emerge. Some of them are calm and reserved whilst others are a bit more cheeky! We are working on hand taming them now to make sure they are all ready for when they go to their new homes. We have a large apple-shaped children's sandbox which we use as a playpen for them and they love coming out and running around! - Anastasia
Hey everyone! The pups are a week old today and are coming along very well. They are growing bigger every day and just beginning to get their fur/pigment through so we can guess at what colours they are. Billie keeps them well covered up so we can only get the occasional peek but we think there are at least 7 pups with a nice mix of goldens, cinnamons and creams. Hopefully we will get a better look soon! I won't be posting any pup pics until their eyes open and they start coming out the nest because we don't want to disturb them, but here's a pic of Billie's giant ridiculous nest; at least they won't get cold! More updates soon.
- Anastasia Hey everyone! Just a couple of quick updates from me. The website should be more or less complete now so I hope you all like the new look! Billie is looking chunky as ever so fingers crossed that she is pregnant. Babies should be due in just over a week... Had a quick photoshoot with the guys last night; have included a gallery of the best pics and a couple of 'halloween' themed ones so hope you like! - Anastasia
