Default Re: Hamster weigh in!

195g is a fine healthy weight.

My biggest is Kettricken at 242g (seven months old), then we have Rowan at 232g and Mira at 205g. Those are our main girlies.
Our boys are Ruaridh at 178g, Woody at 182g, Kirill at 175g and Red at 142g. Red I am concerned about as he has dropped a lot of weight recently (180g in prime), he is getting on a bit now but the weight loss combined with some thinning fur has made me worry about Cushings, I would be surprised if this was genetically in his lineage considering where he came from but I am keeping a close eye, he is certainly not acting as if anything is wrong.

We also have a pet shop hamster, Toffee, who weighs in at 152g and a few youngsters who are in the region of 120g at present. Baggins, our sickly little syrian hamster, is 65g at seven weeks old.
