Looking for a breeder

Muze · 10-11-2007, 01:57 PM

Hiya, im new here

Im hoping someone can help me locate a breeder close to me (Liverpool, Manchester, Cheshire areas) as i would much rather buy from a breeder than a petshop.

Im looking for syrians and im not bothered about coat type or colour. I already have a nice big cage set up just waiting for a new owner

Your best bet would probably be to contact the Northern Hamster Club http://www.northernhamsterclub.co.uk/
as they would deal with your area and would be able to put you in touch with breeders.

If you can get to travel fairly easily, you may wish to look at the 'shows' section of their website. There is a hamster show at Mapplewell (near Barnsley) this Saturday which will be attended by breeders and will probably have breeder hamsters for sale.

Good luck in your search and welcome - I hope you are successful and will let us know all about your new pet in due course!

Thanks for that

i'll contact them and i'll post picies when i get my hammies.

My whole family have got interested now

and my son and hubby want one each too

I dont think i'll be able to make the show in yorkshire as our car isnt in great condition at the mo, but i noticed there is a show coming up in Lymm which is alot closer, so im hoping to make it to that one.

Hi and welcome to the forum. You will probably meet some of the members at Lymm. Hope you find some nice hammies and look forward to pictures.

Hi and welcome to the forum! Souffle and I will also be at Lymm. If you are near Lymm then your best bet for a breeder would be to contact Sheryl Sharkey at Carrington Hamster Crew. You can contact her through her site ~ www.carringtonhamstercrew.co.uk . Hope you can make Lymm and that you find your new friend soon!

Welcome to you and I am sure you will soon find the hammy of your dreams! They are somewhat addictive so watch out. Pophammy has given you a good breeder so hopefully you should be able to pick up your hammy soon and we may see you at Lymm and welcome you to the Northern Club hopefully.
