Default Silly question

Hey hc , when I got my baby last Monday I was told very little about her just that she was Russian and 6-8 weeks , she was in a cage with all the rest of a litter of about 10 she was the slightly chunkier one out of them , I'm just wondering how much she should of grown in the last week because she's bulked out quiet a bit. Also she's getting darker markings is this just a age think to get fatter and get darker ?

Sorry I know I worry to much

Since i've had Bella she has bulked up alot. She's a little fatty! I think it is normal for hybrid Russian as many members have little chubsters Make sure you're not feeding her anything sugary as they are prone to diabetes.

Since they are prone to diaberes their diet is a problem. I use one of Silver's mixes which has been made for diabetic prone hamsters with my Hybrid.
