Default Hamster Genetics

I would like to start reading up on hamster genetics, especially syrians, not for breeding (not for a long time anyway) but because I'm interested.

Are there any links that you could post in this thread/ books you could suggest people who are interested to read.

Thanks xx <3

Sandti

There's not a lot of information available in books, unfortunately. The best thing is to start reading up, ask questions, and, if you're really interested, see if an experienced breeder will mentor you.

The most complete genetics information, from basics like dominant and recessive traits to complex ones like probabilities of certain combinations, is the River Road Hamstery Syrian Genetics website. The River Road Hamstery

Other good places to start:
NHC Exhibition Standards - Syrian - National Hamster Council
Newsletter
Welcome to the British Hamster Association Web Site
Syrian

Hamsterlopaedia also has some genetics info, has enough to help me with the syrian stuff when I try and predict the results of pairings on here and things.
