Fair enough, I'm glad you've got a decision

I just think it'll end up working better anyways - Darissa isn't a huge wheel runner, but appreciates it every now and then. We're still working on a way to upside-down mount the wodent wheels, but Dar has a comfort wheel, so it would be easier on us too. Not sure why I didn't think of that in the first place, but at least we have the option now! Musical hams :P

lol have fun, we may have to play that game because of a mesh chewer soon but I'm hoping to avoid it...

How close to Pekoe is Chia? Since you have bred Pekoe, Chia may be angry at her new smell and is trying to get attention of you. I've had one find a way to chew the 1/4 inch and she quit when she managed to get her teeth caught and had to wait for me to help her loose(NOT at all fun when the Hamster is scared and screaming.) If Chia was happy in the tank I'd say to go and switch the two girls. Besides you know Darissa will get more treats in a meshed bin from Andrew. Hahaha

She's above Pekoe on a lack, Pekoe's underneath. We're moving her to a bin cage tomorrow and then to the living room, where it will be quieter for her.

Interesting that she would be doing that from the smell! I would really not want her to get her teeth caught, so I will move her and Darissa likely the same time we move Pekoe. And yes, Darissa will like it more... more sunflower seeds!

Everyone got moved yesterday! It was an easy sell, as SO was happy to be able to give Dar more treats... :P Chai is of course doing fabulously in the tank. Dar seems to like the bin? however she is open nesting, right near the corner closest to me, so keeps waking up when I get up. Poor gal. She'll settle soon!

There's something for everyone! LOL I'm glad it's worked out Komi. It is so much safer for Chai.

Dar is being so funny - she can't make up her mind on where to sleep. I really wanted to move them ASAP, as the story of Nancy's girl getting her teeth stuck is very scary. Especially since we will be gone overnight on Christmas Eve!

My MIL came over and between her and my SO I think Dar had about 25 sunflower seeds. Probably more... At least her diet is good otherwise x___x
