Re: New Addition
Oh, he's adorable! And is he beyond his feisty stage that you've been able to get handheld pictures of him where he's not biting your thumb?

Re: New Addition
Oh that order made me jealous! It's a sign it's time for me to spoil my hams by ordering more
Could you possibly put him/her into a tub or jar of some sort with a glass bottom so we could see his scent gland? Males have a much more prominent scent glands than females do. Plus seeing underneath would help more I'm not super experienced with dwarfies so you'll need to consult the more experienced people!

It's always time to spoil the hammies!
The glass idea is actually what I tried today, but I realized the pitcher I put him in had a bowed bottom in a way that distorted all the pics, so I tried just holding him, but you can't actually see anything.

Re: New Addition
Lol! May I ask what is wrapped around the Popsicle stick in the other picture? He looks very interested in it.

Re: New Addition
It's a chew from Petco, I think. I have a dangerous obsession with shopping for hamster supplies . Comes with both the popsicle stick and the pink/yellow willow branch in a pack of two.

Re: New Addition
It's wood lol. I bought a three pack of those chews at Petsmart for about three dollars, and it's just a popsicle stick with the wood wrapped around it--sort of hard to explain, now that I'm trying. I've had a look at their website and couldn't find them online, though.
Edit: Thanks, JLPrairie, you did a better job explaining than me lol.

Re: New Addition
He's looking really lovely there, I can't see much from the photos regarding whether he is actually a he! It's always a bit difficult to see in photos when they're that dark.

Re: New Addition
Thanks, Cypher! I suppose for now I'll just continue on the basis that he's a he, at least until he's more tame and I can get a better look.
After putting a lot of thought (probably more than necessary!) into this, I'm officially pronouncing his name as Algernon, because I fell in love with it as soon as it was suggested.
