I've only ever had Syrians when I was younger but all seemed so jumpy and hard to tame.
Does anyone find that Russians are less jumpy?
I have young children so I'm getting one for myself really, I won't allow them to handle the hamster but would be nice for them to watch them.
Do Russians tend to be awake more during the day? Xx
