Wasnt sure where to post this topic-so apologies in advance if it would be better suited elsewhere!
This weekend my partner and I will be taking in an abandoned syrian. Apparently 10 in total were dumped together in Greater Manchester, and were urgently seeking homes.
I called the lady, and there are 3 left, 2 girls, one boy, age unknown, but the lady reckons they are adults.
Now, I currently have 2 male robos and one male syrian with me at the mo.
My question is about my male syrian. He is roughly about 3 months old (8 wks ish when i got him, had him for about 5 weeks now).
Obviously they wont be in the same cage, but all my boys live in my spare room. Would it be better to adopt a girl or a boy? I dont want him to get domineering if i bring another male syrian into our home, but I dont want his hormones to make him crazy if I bring home a lady?
Or am I reading too much into this, and does it not matter at all?
While I want to give one of the abandoned hammies a loving home, I love my other syrian to pieces too, and want to do right!
Sooo, anyone got any advice on this-I've never kept more than one syrian at once, so I havent a clue.
Oh, also, if it makes a difference, the adoptee will be nowhere near my syrian, opposite side of the room-maybe 3 meters away, on a shelving unit above my robo bin cages.
Thanks!
