7 Dwarf Hamsters
3 months old

Seven male hamsters, 2 black and 5 tan, for adoption. They are all brothers born on December 24th 2010.

I've taken good care of them and am attached to them, but I cannot keep them and their 5 sisters anymore. (total 12 hamsters)

They are all well fed, healthy and very cute. They ALL love to be held and many will walk into your hand when you hold it next to them. None of these hamsters have ever bitten me.

I am interested adopting away either the boys or girls.

~here is The Long Story~
Last August 2010 I bought my girlfriend a hamster cage and hamster stuff, with giftcards at petsmart to get a hamster, gerbil, mouse, rat... whatever. Well she wanted her hamster to have a friend so we bought two, from two different stores. The one at petsmart was sold as a girl, and the other was from a local pet shop, also a girl.

Well it turns out that the girl we bought from the local pet store was pregnant. Less than one week later she had three babies. Well we decided to keep them as long as they were female. As they were growing we noticed that the other hamster from petsmart was doing alot of humping on the other hamster. She wouldent let us pick her up and she would bite! So we just left her and assumed petmart knew she was a female...

Turns out by the time I could sex the new three babies my mommy hamster was getting fatter and fatter! I had a bad feeling... a few days later I had another 5 baby hamsters. That was the final straw. So I knew then that I had been sold a male hamster and kept them together for a long time. I got another cage and seperated the mother with her new and old babies, and the male from petsmart in his own cage.

Anyway I kept the family all together and watched them all grow. I still was not sure %100 how to sex them so I just left the whole family all together... turns out that was a mistake too. In mid-December I noticed that 3 girls were getting bigger. So I finally sucked it up picked them all up and seperated males from females.

On December 24th, about 15 hamsters were born giving me a new total of 25 or something.

Fast track to now.

Basically I have 12 left. Sold a few, friends took some. But I am getting desperate in looking for GOOD people to take them. I am a student and I have put alot of money into them, but its strating to strain my time and money.

So I am putting up for adoption all but 2 of my hamsters.
hope to hear from you!
