Well two weeks ago today they were born, and these boys and girls have come on great guns!

A couple of them have had their eyes open for a day or two, but by today, I could see all 'peepers' so I took the chance for a photo session whilst BB was having some 'me' time.

I also took the chance to do a half clean of the cage, and to have a quick handle of the pups. Having been absolutely convinced up to now we have 3 girls, I'm suddenly doubting it - we may only have two, a satin and a normal. This is the age when they are harder to sex however, so I will wait a wee while and see what happens! :D - sorry there are so many - but honestly I got rid of another 20 or so I was going to post!!

WOW, they are really really beautiful. No need to apologise, lots of piccies please.
Well done SM and BB - looking forward to watching them grow up.....

Oh Spud's mum you must be thrilled. They are just beautiful babies. They look to have lovely dark coats and so chunky too. I love the sleepy head pic! Keep them coming. We love baby piccies. :lol:

Yes ILMH they are cream - the colour darkens as they age and gets deeper. Mum is a red-eyed cream and Dad is a black eyed cream

Here is Mum Butterbean

And here is Dad, Dubaku

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/hamster_dubaku_001.jpg

They look very forward for 2 weeks.

I think you are right Basia, they certainly seem round and very steady for their age! :D

Dubaku is stunning - looking forward to his visit :)

Spuds Mum
05-13-2008, 01:28 PM
thanks everyone, I am really pleased with them and very proud of Mum and Dad....

......Gus, with a boyfriend arriving for your Wes shortly, I think it is probably safezt that Hobbs is a young man! :wink: But thanks, I think Dubs looks great in that photo - very regal, and not at all the soft cuddly slush-bucket he actually is :x

Spuds Mum

Well here are tonights photos - definitely only two females (one satin) and 3 males in the litter :oops:

They are currently working their way through a mountain of Tofu, broccoli and Hipp Spinach and cheesey bake :roll:

Firstly, I want to tell you a satin story....

Once upon a time a little shiny girl looked out of her nest guiltily "pouches? no I haven't got anything in my pouches"



http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_008a.jpg

"Oh, okay then, I have seen Mum pouch our nest, so I guessed it must be tasty, so I was just trying it out...."

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_009.jpg

"I can't quite get the hang of it though - Ive made it all soggy!!"


http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_010.jpg

"OO that looks interesting, I want to taste your soggy wet bedding, let me have that bit"

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_011.jpg

GIVE ME MY SOGGY BEDDING BACK - I WANTED THAT - YOU ALWAYS TAKE MY STUFF WITHOUT ASKING
http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_012.jpg

RIGHT YOU ASKED FOR IT - NOW YOU'RE GOING TO GET IT!
http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_013.jpg

Thank goodness this naughty satin girl is already spoken for! I do hope her new Mummy will be able to keep her in line! :D

Anyway, a photo of my more well-behaved pups - BUT WHATS THIS? STAY AWAY FROM THAT BEDDING!!!
http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_014.jpg[/i][/b] :x :x :x

Aw they are just irresistable. Great photos and lovely, lovely pups. :D

05-14-2008, 01:57 PM
Awwwww that is a fantastic photostory spud's mum. The babies are thriving on soggy bedding for sure! :lol:

Mollz Mum
05-14-2008, 01:58 PM
LOL :lol: I always love a bedtime story......

They are really gorgeous and seem to be growing so fast.

Bunsey
05-14-2008, 02:21 PM
awww, that's so funny. they're adorable!! They remind me of robos righting over a pea when there's 100 in the bowl :lol:

Yaffle
05-14-2008, 02:24 PM
OMG how cute! They are all looking soooo pretty!

I can't believe my little girl is only two weeks old and already misbehaving :lol:

ooooh I can't wait to meet her it seems like she is going to have a big personality just like her half sister Minx!

Holly
05-15-2008, 10:21 AM
Oh brilliant story, Spuds Mum - love it!

They are looking so beautiful - so is there a beautiful little girlfriend for Creme Egg in there that you are keeping? :wink:

Spuds Mum
05-15-2008, 10:24 AM
There is certainly a most beautiful normal girl who will without a doubt be staying with me! Lets hope she lives up to her promise and stays a chunky monkey with a lovely face! :D

Holly
05-15-2008, 10:30 AM
Brilliant! Seems a bit awful marrying off the poor guys when they are still babies but hey! :wink:

Spuds Mum
05-17-2008, 03:08 PM
Well tonight, at the grand age of 2 weeks and 5 days, I have taken some photos of my largest boy. I think he is a beauty with a wonderful face, and he is very sweet natured (though they are all incredibly fast at the moment, and we have to be very careful of them launching themselves out of our hands). I also think he is going to get a wonderful home, and if he doesn't he will definitely be staying with us.

Oh and just to make it very clear - those arms and legs are not mine! honest - they are Bramble's Dad's but it does remind me I need some new razors! :x

Aw Spuds Mum, what a gorgeous boy! (and shiny girl, Yaffle). :D
I am absolutely certain that little boy has a home that can't wait to have him. :wink:

Spuds Mum
05-17-2008, 04:41 PM
Aww thanks Basia, I think he is beautiful too! :D But then I thin they all are.

My eldest daughter held 'mischief' (or Pledge or Mr Sheen as Arti calls her) tonight and fell head over heels for her. I think Yaffle may have to physically remove her from my Amy's hands!! :roll: :D

Basia
05-17-2008, 04:45 PM
I can understand why Amy has fallen for her! Satins always do look especially lovely and she is just gorgeous.
Butterbean and Dubs have done you proud - I have been waiting a long time waiting for you to do this mating and was beginning to think you never would!

Spuds Mum
05-17-2008, 04:56 PM
:oops: it seems strange that the reason we got Dubs and BB in the first place was to mate them - and we so nearly missed the boat :shock: And do you know - Ive never had a cream baby before now??? how bizarre is that when all my matings have involved sables, minks and creams somewhere in there! :D

Basia
05-17-2008, 05:05 PM
That is strange! Well at least you have a lovely cream litter now, especially considering you have given up creams. :P
Are you just keeping the one?

Spuds Mum
05-17-2008, 05:07 PM
Arti pipes up....."yes she is" :x

Bunsey
05-17-2008, 05:15 PM
aw how lovely! i love the one of him cleaning under the bridge :D

Yaffle
05-17-2008, 06:39 PM
Oh my, I just love her, she is just sooooo pretty!

Those photos have made my day :D

And, although Mr Sheen is a fab name, I'm calling her Evaine, after the star in the movie Stardust :wink:

Holly
05-18-2008, 12:22 AM
Ooooh they are so lovely :)

You got any piccies of Creme Egg's fiancee? :wink:

i've liked the name for ages, I was actually gonna call one of Yeti's litter Evaine but I never ended up keeping a girl, so I've been waiting for my Evie for a long time :P

Mollz
05-18-2008, 06:13 AM
That big boy looks such a sweetheart and Evaine is beautiful (lovely name, if we keep a girl from our litter then she will more than likely be called Evie!).

More pictures pleeeeeease???!!!

Spuds Mum
05-18-2008, 02:47 PM
I've not taken photos tonight Im afraid, but will get some (including some of Eggy's girlfriend to be) tomorrow night. I weighed all the babies tonight though - they will be 3 weeks tomorrow.
Smallest boy 48g
medium boy 57g
Basia's boy 63g
Evaine 61g
Eggy's girlfriend 71g :shock:

I dont know what the weights actually mean, as I never weighed any of my litters this early before, but I would say the smallest is about the size of my other litters - the others seem heeuuugge for their age. What does everyone think? :D

Basia
05-18-2008, 03:01 PM
They are little porkers aren't they? I think I may just have thought of a name for mine....
I wish all litters were just 5 or 6 babies, I'm sure they are better for it.

nooboo
05-18-2008, 03:55 PM
71 is good going for a 3 week old!

heres hoping the little ones catch up, either way looks like you have a great litter there, i demand more cute pics :P


time to admit (after reading mr sheen) that dave called ur ham waxon (as in wax on wax off...like he was a slippery karate kid! something about satins crys out for for those kind of names!
still evaine is a good name!

Harry the Hamster
05-18-2008, 03:57 PM

Holly
05-18-2008, 11:41 PM
I've never weighed any of mine that young before either but they do sound enormous! I started weighing my last lot at 5 weeks and had no real idea what a normal 5 week weight range was so I'll be interested to see how these develop :wink:

Looking forward to the piccies!

I'm calling her Evaine, after the star in the movie Stardust :wink:

That's the name I had chosen for my black girl from Basia!! :D
My blacks all have magical names and I have recently obtained a black boy who I named Tristan from Stardust!

Okay - more pics tonight... And Ive tried to get all of the litter, so I apologise in advance for posting so many :oops:

My girl - with middle sized boy behind (!)

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_024.jpg

Smallest boy - looking so incredibly cute

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_025.jpg

Evaine and Gill's boy (who does have a name, I think, but its for Basia to introduce him) squeezing up together

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/butterbean_litter_002_026.jpg

And here is the littlest boy

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/littleboy_001.jpg

And the middle sized boy (I feel like I am reading goldilocks/billy goats gruff to you!!) - yes a poor joke I know - but look - he is laughing at it!!!!

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/middleboy_001.jpg

And the largest billy goat gruff came... oh okay - Basia's baby then

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/bailey_001.jpg

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/bailey_002.jpg

And the girls - goldilocks herself....Evaine, Yaffle's girlie

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/evaine_001.jpg

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/evaine_002.jpg

Finally, the girl I am keeping, who is to be called (I think :? ) Chantilly - or Tilly for short

http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/tilly_001.jpg


http://www.madabouthamsters.com/images/misc/tilly_002.jpg

I hope you think she is okay for your beautiful Eggy (love that name) Holly??

Aw, what great pictures, they are all so lovely, I may have to kidnap all of them!!
My big billy goat gruff is going to be called Bailey after my favourite (cream) drink Baileys. :P

Spuds Mum
05-20-2008, 01:49 PM
I need to ask something actually - and I forgot.

Middle boy and Basia's boy seem to have whiskers that curl inwards (you might see from the photos). their fur is starting to grow longer, but bearing in mind that their Grandma is from the same litter as Mollz and Mollz' Mum's Charlie and Doodle's Mum - you dont think they could possibly be rex do you? When would I be able to tell?
And if they are not, do you think it might be possibly a sign they carry rex?

Its just something that I have noticed on these boys - but it may be totally normal, and if so apologies for my stupidity!

:oops:

Basia
05-20-2008, 01:57 PM
My Chunky's whiskers are a bit curly and Jenny said he was carrying rex.
Have just had another look at their curly whiskers - aren't they cute!

Mollz
05-20-2008, 01:57 PM
Oh I love that little boy :P and all of the rest of them .....

It does look as if Basias boy (in those last two pictures) has curly whiskers, although I also see that some are straight - so I don't know. I'll see if I can find a good picture of Doodles' face for comparison (although Doodles is very curly compared to them)....

I just looked at the post BourneValley did of the Kava litter, and I definitely dont think that ours are rexes - but it does make you wonder whether they could possibly be carrying it - or if I'm just making it up! Its strange though, as Id forgotten there was a family connection between these and Doodles/Charlie, so didnt think about rexes but suddenly saw the whiskers and a lightbulb came on!

My big billy goat gruff is going to be called Bailey after my favourite (cream) drink Baileys. :P

What a fantastic name! :D I wonder who has a little boy called Bailey? :D I will have to tell him...he came in from preschool this afternoon, spied 2 new Gabbers and said 'oh mummy, can we can some new hamsters called Bailey?' He'll be thrilled! :D :wink:

05-20-2008, 02:20 PM
They are just gorgeous and growing so big and beautiful Spud's mum. I see what you mean about the whiskers too. I don't know if rex carriers have wavy whiskers. They might. You can tell LH carriers so rex might be similar :lol:

05-20-2008, 03:03 PM
They're so stunning! I want the little boy...I could just pop him in my pocket and run away with him.... :wink:

Yaffle
05-20-2008, 03:28 PM

Oh Teresa, they are all absolute beautiful, I especially love Eggy's girlfriend to be, I think he will as well! She's beautiful :D

I think there may be a hint of rex there. Kava's whiskers are a bit like that and she produced Doodles and Applejack so she obviously carries rex.

Oh no!!! Available? Really??? I'm very very tempted. OMG, what's happening to me?!! Its just so happens that I have one spare Gabber left and I'll have a spare Wodent Wheel when I've collected mine from Holly at Blenheim...hmmm....and now Holly is pushing me over the edge saying he looks just like Button as I ADORE Button! I already have 3 hamster cages sitting on the floor as I can't work out where to put shelves for them (without hiding my pictures - or building over the windows!) Hmmm. I do like to keep things in the family, and since I already have one of Dubaku's grandchildren (Monte), I think my days of looking at pictures on the wall might be over. :?

Spud's Mum, would you consider letting me have him? I promise he'll be worshipped (and his every whim catered to). Please????

Yay!

Sorry for commenting on his similarity to Button (actually I'm not sorry at all, I know this little guy will have a brill home with you :P ).

Holly, I blame you for this! :wink: Well, I blame Button. Spud's Mum has kindly agreed I can have the little boy so I'm collecting him this Sun at Blenheim! I can hardly contain my excitement!!! I'm waiting for Monte to wake up so I can tell him that his uncle is coming to live with us. Celebratory porridge for the hams tonight (and their favourite - Sainsbury's Italian Salad!)...I think I'll settle for a nice glass of red and some chocolate myself!

Spuds Mum
05-21-2008, 10:23 AM
I am very happy this little Dubeanie will be living in luxury with ELC :D

But ELC - Im slightly disconcerted - I hope thats not expensive wine and chocolate you are celebrating with - that would be a waste of money you could be spending on hamster goodies :wink: :x

Cheers anyway - I think I will join you in a glass later :D

Yaffle
05-21-2008, 10:30 AM
Yay good news ELC! :P

Do all the babies have homes now Spud?

I'm a wee bit jealous that ELC is getting her little Dubeanie this wknd but I think I can just about wait until the 31st :wink:

Spuds Mum
05-21-2008, 01:05 PM
Aww it will make her all the more special for waiting Yaffle, and Arti says we haven't quite finished training her yet.

He says the intensive training is to ensure she gives you a nibble the first time you hold her, as this is obviously something that seems to happen every time you hold a new hamster :P So far we are failing miserably - she hasn't so much as licked us - so we need the extra time :wink: :x

All the pups are spoken for apart from the middle boy, and I just can't see me letting him go to be honest. Ooops - I may have just let Arti know about another hamster via the forum (again) :oops: :D

Mollz
05-21-2008, 01:07 PM
Congratulations ELC, both you and the little boy are very lucky :D

I thought you sounded like you liked that middle boy a bit too much SM, he is totally gorgeous though and worth Arti being a bit miffed! :wink:

Spuds Mum
05-21-2008, 01:16 PM
I thought you sounded like you liked that middle boy a bit too much SM,

To be entirely honest I love them all too much to let them go :oops: and that just shows what a nice person I am (Basia and ELC and Yaffle to note!! :P ) I am just so happy that they are going to some really splendid homes and new Mummies.

As for the boys, I have decided to keep every one of them at one stage or another - of course before owners came along!! The only one that was ever safe was Evaine, and that was only because I knew that Yaffle really wanted a satin, and had asked for a girl from the litter, so it was already done really as soon as her fur came in. I still love her just as much though, but have always thought of her as Yaffle's baby :D :D

And you can laugh now Mollz - lets see how you feel in approximately four weeks :wink: oh and if I keep a boy carrying rex, what I could really do with is a lovely cream girl either rex or carrying - hmmm wonder where I might find one..... :x

He says the intensive training is to ensure she gives you a nibble the first time you hold her, as this is obviously something that seems to happen every time you hold a new hamster :P So far we are failing miserably - she hasn't so much as licked us - so we need the extra time :wink: :x
:D

Noooooo I don't want a naughty little nibbler :lol:

Still, I can't imagine any hamster of yours to bite SM, I think she'll be with you a lot longer yet for you to train her to do that (dont get any ideas she's mine all mine :x )

I know, I know - I'll be awful, but mum will be worse! I'm sure I'll want to keep every one of them, but as you said having good homes lined up will definitely help (and I have 3 already).
And I know where you could find a nice cream girly rex/carrying rex...... :wink:

Aw it's so nice when babies from our litters go to other people on the forum. I'm so happy to be having Bailey and be able to see pictures of his siblings growing up with their new forum mum's.
Then later in the summer my little boy or girl from Molz and her Mum will be coming home and it sounds as though I may be keeping in touch with some of his or her siblings too. :P

I would love a Mollz baby for my Curly boy, but I think I ought to talk to someone about Curly boy staying before I talk to him about a Curly boy girlfriend :oops: as soon as I do though - someone will no doubt be getting an email!! :wink:

Oh, please don't feel like you have to have a baby from us!
Of course, we would be thrilled if one did go to you, but don't feel at all pressured (especially if it gets you in trouble with Arti!).

Pah trouble??? :roll: My middle name is trouble 8) lol.
well middle boy is staying with us (Arti wants to call him Flymo :roll: ) so I am pretty sure that I may be emailing you and Mum shortly Mollz - and dont worry - I wouldnt feel at all obligated.

I think, by the way, Matty's right - I'm doing creams again :oops: :x

Picture time!

Well the kids are growing very well, and have been removed from Mum, who is now relaxing and eating well.

I also weighed the pups tonight - so at 3 weeks 5 days we have (and 5 days since last weighed)

Tilly (mine) 97g + 26
Bailey (Basia) 87g + 24
Evaine (Yaffle 83g + 22
Flymo (mine) 79g + 22
Butterscotch?? (ELC) 69g + 21

so they all seem to be gaining weight well.
Anyway - photos....

And Evaine is still being a monster Yaffle - but the others now seem to have worked out a way to cope with her... they all just pile up each other on top of her and squash her into submission!

And, though it is out of focus (he was being friendly and came up for a cuddle before I could take the shot) here is what would have been a lovely photo of ELC's baby!

Ah, my little boy is gorgeous!!! And I love that he's a cuddler! :D I can't wait to meet him...I've been shopping for toys this afternoon for him (any excuse to do some hamster shopping!).

*must remember my manners* :roll: ....All the babies look beautiful - and very healthy. Well done to Butterbearn!

Awww they all look fab and my Evaine is just bootiful :P

Evaine actually really looks like Minx in the 4th photo (same Dad) and it seems like they have similar personalities too.

I really can't wait to collect Evaine but I know another week or so's running on with Tilly will do her good. I went to p@h today and saw a lovely looking little boy and I was soooooo tempted, I held him and named him any everything :oops: but the thought of my little Evaine kept me strong and I resisted temptation - just!
