Parting is such sweet sorrow. The baby boys have said their last good-bye to their Mom and sister. Elisa is allowing her Daughter to stay with her so unless there is a conflict the two will remain together until little girl goes for a 3 hour drive from here to her forever home. Her new owner is very excited to be getting her next week. The two boys didn't seem to upset at becoming Bachelors All thanks to a Wodent Wheel lol.

While I did a full clean out of the tank I had Mom and all three pups in the Boys new bin, and had a great laugh at all four hamsters getting in and running as a 4 wheel drive group. Thought you all would enjoy a bit of the fun.

The boys figured out what this new thing was very quickly


But then Mom got in LOL


But they soon learned to run with Mom and weeeee


But then Mom got greedy and the boys tried to stop the wheel to get in.


Are you all wondering where little girl was at during all this fun?
Stuffing her face with food is where she was.


They did all manage to get in the wheel together


Elisa says 3 pups in a wheel is too much and I'm getting out of here.


The girls show the two boys how it is done.


I am still debating on if I should keep any of the boys from this litter. Main issue is, even though they are all lovely, and have beautiful coats, and are a great size, they all are Chocolate Yellows or Yellows that are cream masked or have Cream carried in them. The new owner of the girl has been kind enough to allow little girl to have one litter when old enough so the lines from this litter will not be lost. The cream used in the Rust lines is OK so I could run on with a male to improve the Rust lines, BUT he would still be producing Yellow lines which have cream.

Here are the Boys in hand:
Darker Boy


Lighter Boy

Other factor in keep or pet out for the boys is I have some REALLY nice males in the C-16 litter and I have a new male coming to ST's next Saturday that will be slightly related 4 generations back of any Rust line hamster I have so I have to regulate my numbers. I also still have Mom who is young enough to have another litter too.

Lol! I LOVE those wheel photos - I can just imagine it! It must be a hard decision knowing which to keep but you'll probably just know

This afternoon when most sensible Hamsters are tucked in their nest sleeping I had little girl in the wheel running by herself slowly but steadily while Mom was in the nest snoozing away like a normal hamster. In the Boy bin darker boy was on the wheel and lighter boy was staring at him like he was asking his brother if he was insane

As for selection I have to view them in a whole picture and not by heart strings. Because I am breeding to get the Cream OUT of my lines I have decided to re-home this whole litter. There are many very nice pups in the C & D-16 litters who will meet my needs in both color and patterns which this litter will not meet. Elisa will get a rest for a few months and will be bred to the new male coming here Saturday. I will miss this litter as they are so laid back compared to many of my Chocolate/Yellow litters, but that is most likely due to the Cream in them..
