Thanks Livedinhogwards and Charlie Dunn! He seems pretty content. Today I got him to climb on to my hand for a meal worm and he sat for a few seconds. He is eating and drinking well. After looking at some online pics, I'm not sure he is a WW due to his color. That was what he was labeled at the pet store but...LOL. He is very sweet and we love him already. He is a birthday present for my 13 year old son. But I'll admit, I'm smitten too.

Hi and welcome to the forum!
Oh my! Gimli is SO handsome and cute! I love his coloring and his long, white “tie”! That’s great that he is so good with coming on your hand for mealworms! I think by his looks, he is a Hybrid hamster (mix of a Winter White Russian Dwarf and a Campbell’s Russian Dwarf, you can just refer to him as a Campbells as most WW and Campbells are hybrids). I’m exited to hear more about how taming goes! If you have any questions or concerns feel free to ask! I can’t wait to see more of you guys around the forum!

Gimli is gorgeous, congrats! Look forward to seeing more of him.

I would imagine it's very unlikely that he will be a pure WW, all pet shops hams are hybrids although they can look very like either WW or Campbell's.

Thanks for the warm welcome Sasha04, cypher, and Josie. It is hard to wait for him to wake up. He slowly wakes up around 8pm. It seems that is pretty normal based on what I have read.

Hi and welcome to HC! Congrats on Gimli; is just too precious! I love his name, too. Congrats on getting him to go on your hand while he eats his yummy mealworms! I posted on your other thread prior to reading this one, lol.
