Thanks everyone!

Do you know what breed/species she is? Some people say she is a Winter White but some people say she is a hybrid? Maybe she is something else?

Thanks!

Her species (there aren't breeds in hamsters) is a hybrid of a Campbell's and a winter white. She shows strong winter white genes with her coat change and sapphire colouring

She's very cute!

Thanks! That helped me a lot to know more her type!

You're welcome there are a couple of things to know re hybrids (I've had three so far!). 1. Is to look out for signs of diabetes as they can be prone to developing it and 2. Be mindful of sugar intake.

There's plenty of info on the forum and online in general

Enjoy your gorgeous little one!

Thanks again for your advice!

I will read the thread about hamster diabetes later.

I saw Wonton and Emi's thread! They are so cute!
