I know hybrid hamsters are unfortunately very common nowadays and it's not unusual to see them in pet shops and rescues.

But why are they bred? It costs the rodent farms no more than the hybrids to breed them and raise them so why do they continue to do it even though they know that they'd most likely have MORE customers and money if they bred pure Russians?
