What breed is my dwarf hamster?
Hey there ! I recently adopted my very first dwarf hamster earlier this year in May, from a local hamster rescue group who was rehoming a litter. I've had her a while now, and she's the sweetest little thing. I've only ever had a male Syrian previously, so it's definitely a new experience.
While recently researching to see which coat colour she is, I began questioning what breed she is exactly? I always thought she was a Russian Campbells due to the even stripe down the back, and thought she was Opal in colour, though her round shape and smaller ears led me to question whether she's a Sapphire Winter White? It's likely she's a hybrid but I'm just curious as to what others think. Here are the best photos I have. I hope they help as she's so hard to photograph

Re: What breed is my dwarf hamster?
She is lovely! It’s unlikely that you would find a pure bred WW or Campbell’s at a rescue, possible but as you can only get either from a reputable breeder it would be rare for them to end up at a rescue so I think you can be pretty she’s a hybrid, they can look like either species or have characteristics of both so it can be confusing.
